MWDSLS – District Project No.: SA021 Instructions to Bidders
Cottonwoods Connection Page 00100-4
described in the Contract Documents are sufficient in scope and detail to indicate
and convey understanding of all terms and conditions for performance and
furnishing the WORK.
QUANTITIES OF WORK:
1. The quantities of WORK or material stated in the Bid Schedule are supplied only
to give an indication of the general scope of the WORK; the OWNER does not
expressly or by implication agree that the actual amount of WORK or material will
correspond therewith. The OWNER reserves the right after award of the contract
to increase or decrease the quantities of any unit price item of the WORK by an
amount up to and including 25 percent of the quantity of any bid item, or to omit
portions of such WORK as may be deemed necessary or expedient by the
ENGINEER or OWNER, without a change in the unit price. Such right to revise
and omit shall include the right to delete any bid item in its entirety, or to add
additional bid items in quantities up to and including an aggregate total amount not
to exceed 25 percent of the total Contract Price.
2. The Bidder nor the ultimate CONTRACTOR on the Project shall at no time after
the submittal of a Bid make or have any claim for damages or anticipated profits
or loss of profit or otherwise because of any difference between the quantities of
WORK actually done and material furnished and those stated in said unit price
items of the Bid.
PREQUALIFIED CONTRACTORS: The OWNER has selected prequalified General
Contractors as eligible to bid and construct the Project. A list of prequalified General
Contractors is provided in the Contract Documents . Only prequalified General
Contractors shall be allowed to submit bids on this Contract .
DISQUALIFICATION OF BIDDERS: More than one Bid from an individual, firm
partnership, corporation, or association under the same or different names will not be
considered. Reasonable grounds for believing that any Bidder is interested in more than
one Bid for the WORK contemplated will cause the rejection of all bids in which such
Bidder is interested. If there is reason for believing that collusion exists among the
bidders, all Bids will be rejected.
RELEASE OF BID BONDS: Upon request of any Bidder, the OWNER will return and
release any surety bid bond accompanying a bid that was not considered in making the
award. All other bid guarantees will be held and maintained until the Agreement has been
executed.
AWARD OF CONTRACT: Award of the contract, if it be awarded, will be based primarily
on the lowest overall cost to the OWNER, and will be made to a responsive and
responsible Bidder whose Bid complies with all the requirements prescribed. Any such
award will be made by written notice and within 60 calendar days after opening of the
Bids, unless a longer waiting period is expressly allowed in the Notice Inviting Bids.
Hazen and Sawyer Project No.: 70088-001
01/04/2024
MWDSLS – District Project No.: SA021 Instructions to Bidders
Cottonwoods Connection Page 00100-5
Unless otherwise indicated, an award will not be made for less than all the bid items in an
individual bid schedule. In the event the entire WORK is contained in more than one bid
schedule, the OWNER may award schedules individually or in combination. In the case
of two bid schedules which are alternate to each other, only one of such alternate
schedules will be awarded.
EXECUTION OF CONTRACT: The Bidder to whom the award is made shall execute a
written contract with the OWNER on the Agreement form provided, shall secure all
insurance and shall furnish all certificates and bonds required by the Contract Documents
within 10 calendar days after receipt of the Notice of Award from the OWNER. Failure or
refusal to execute the Agreement as herein provided or to conform to any of the stipulated
requirements in connection therewith shall be just cause for annulment of the award an d
enforcement of the bid guarantee. If the successful Bidder refuses or fails to execute the
Agreement, the OWNER may award the contract to the second lowest responsible
Bidder, or reject all Bids and readvertise the Project for rebidding. If the second lowest
responsible Bidder refuses or fails to execute the Agreement, the OWNER may award
the contract to the third lowest responsible Bidder. On the failure or refusal of such second
or third lowest Bidder to execute the Agreement, each such Bidder's guarant ees shall be
subject to enforcement.
ISSUANCE OF NOTICE TO PROCEED: The OWNER intends to execute the Agreement
and issue the Notice to Proceed specifying the Project start date within ten calendar days
after its receipt of the executed Agreement, bonds and insurance certificates from the
successful Bidder. If the Contract Time is expressed as a completion date, rather than a
number of calendar days, then any delay by the OWNER beyond the ten days in issuing
the Notice to Proceed shall extend the completion date by the number of days of the
delay.
SUBSTITUTE AND “OR-EQUAL” ITEMS: The Contract, if awarded, will be on the basis
of materials and equipment specified or described in the Bidding Documents without
consideration of possible substitute of “or-equal” items. Whenever it is specified or
described in the Bidding Documents that a substitute or “or -equal” item of material or
equipment may be furnished or used by Bidder if acceptable to ENGINEER, application
for such acceptance will not be considered by ENGINEER until after the Effective Date of
the Agreement. The procedure for submission of any such application by Bidder and
consideration by ENGINEER is set forth in the General Conditions and the
Supplementary General Conditions.
PRE-BID CONFERENCE: A mandatory Pre-Bid Conference will be held at 9:00 am on
January 11, 2024, at OWNER’s offices, 3430 East Danish Road, Cottonwood Heights,
UT 84093. Representatives of OWNER and ENGINEER will be present to discuss the
Project. Prospective Bidders are required to attend. ENGINEER will transmit to all
prospective Bidders of record such Addenda as ENGINEER considers necessary in
response to questions arising at the conference. Oral statements may not be relied
upon and will not be binding or legally effective. Those bidders not attending the pre-bid
conference shall have their bids rejected.

PARTNERING: The OWNER intends to participate in a partnering process with Bidder.
The objectives of the process will be to achieve effective and efficient performance of the
WORK and completion of the WORK within the Contract Price and Contract Time, all in
accordance with the Contract Documents.
Participation in the partnering process will be voluntary. To initiate the process, within 14
days after the Notice to Proceed the key personnel of OWNER, ENGINEER, Bidder, and
Bidder’s major subcontractors will be invited to attend a teaming workshop to develop a
partnering statement. The workshop will be conducted by a neutral facilitator at a time
and location agreed to by the OWNER and Bidder.
The facilitator will be selected by the OWNER, subject to approval by Bidder. Cost of the
facilitator and facilities for the initial workshop will be paid by the OWNER. Thereafter, all
facilitator-related and facilities costs will be shared equally by the OWNER and Bidder
with no change in Contract Price. Each party will pay all costs associated with the
participation of its own personnel.
A primary objective of the partnering process is to maximize the potential for resolution of
disputes in a timely and non-adversarial manner. The use of alternative dispute resolution
(ADR) methods will be encouraged in order to promote and maintain amicable working
relationships among the parties. In the event that ADR procedures are unsuccessful, the
dispute resolution provisions set forth in the Contract Documents will be employed.
These provisions express the intent and spirit of the partnering process, and nothing
stated herein or in the partnering statement shall change in any way the rights,
responsibilities, and obligations of the parties as set forth in the Contract Documents. The
partnering statement will not be a part of the Contract Documents and will not modify any
defense, claim, obligation, or right that otherwise exists.

from the suspension or discontinuance of work, except as in the Contract
Documents are expressly stipulated to be borne by OWNER.

Hazen and Sawyer Consultant Project No.: 70088-001
01/04/2024
MWDSLS – District Project No.: SA021 Agreement
Cottonwoods Connection Page 00500-5
the following provisions. As used in this provision “good faith” means only that both
parties will meet at reasonable times, with a view toward reaching a consensus, and
does not impose an obligation to act on either party in such a way that may then be
contrary to that party’s own best interests as seen by that party.
9.2 Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the breach
thereof, that is not resolved by negotiation will be mediated before an impartial,
experienced, and qualified mediator selected by the parties. The parties will mutually
agree on a qualified, experienced mediator. If the parties cannot agree on a
mediator, one may be appointed by a court of competent jurisdiction. Each party will
bear its own costs and expenses and an equal share of the costs of mediation.
9.3 If the controversy or claim is not resolved by mediation it will be resolved by binding
arbitration in accordance with American Arbitration Association’s (AAA) then most
current version of its Construction Industry Arbitration Rules. The arbitration will not
be administered by the AAA without the consent of both parties unless such AAA
administration is necessary to arbitrate this matter as described here. Judgment on
the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having personal
and subject matter jurisdiction of the matter. Claims will be heard by a single
arbitrator. If the parties are unable to agree on an arbitrator within ten (10) business
days of a request to arbitrate, the arbitrator will be selected using the AAA’s list
process as provided in its Construction Industry Arbitration Rules. The place of
arbitration will be Salt Lake City, Utah. The arbitration will be governed by the laws
of the State of Utah. Each party will, upon written request of the other party,
promptly provide the other with copies of all relevant documents. Any additional
discovery or disclosures may be ordered in the discretion of the arbitrator. Hearings
will take place pursuant to the standard procedures of the Construction Arbitration
Rules that contemplate in person hearings. Time is of the essence for any arbitration
under this Agreement and arbitration proceedings will take place within ninety (90)
days of appointment of an arbitrator and awards rendered within sixty (60) days
thereafter. The arbitrator must agree to these limits prior to accepting appointment.
The arbitrator will have no authority to award punitive damages or consequential
damages, or other damages not measured by the prevailing party’s actual damages,
except as may be expressly required by this Agreement or statute. Each party will
bear its own costs and expenses and an equal share of the arbitrators' and
administrative fees of arbitration. The award of the arbitrator will be accompanied by
a reasoned opinion. Except as may be required by law, neither a party nor an
arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration hereunder
without the prior written consent of both parties. Notwithstanding any language to
the contrary in the contract documents, the parties hereby agree: that the Underlying
Award may be appealed pursuant to the AAA’s Optional Appellate Arbitration Rules
(Appellate Rules); that the Underlying Award rendered by the arbitrator(s) will, at a
minimum, be a reasoned award; and that the Underlying Award will not be
considered final until after the time for filing the notice of appeal pursuant to the
Appellate Rules has expired. Appeals must be initiated within thirty (30) days of
receipt of an Underlying Award, as defined by Rule A-3 of the Appellate Rules, by
Hazen and Sawyer Consultant Project No.: 70088-001
01/04/2024
MWDSLS – District Project No.: SA021 Agreement
Cottonwoods Connection Page 00500-6
filing a Notice of Appeal with any AAA office. Following the appeal process the
decision rendered by the appeal tribunal may be entered in any court having
personal and subject matter jurisdiction of the matter.
ARTICLE 10
MISCELLANEOUS
10.1 Terms used in this Agreement are defined in Article 1 of the General Conditions.

A. The CONTRACTOR shall provide skilled, competent and suitably qualified
personnel to survey and lay out the WORK and perform construction as
required by the Contract Documents. The CONTRACTOR shall at all
times maintain good discipline and order at the site.
B. Except in connection with the safety or protection of persons at the
WORK, or property at the site or adjacent thereto, all work at the site shall
be performed during regular working hours (7:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.,
Monday through Friday), and the CONTRACTOR will not permit overtime
work or the performance of work on Saturday, Sunday or any legal holiday
observed by the OWNER without the OWNER’s written consent given
after prior written notice to the ENGINEER. Except as otherwise provided
in this Paragraph, the CONTRACTOR shall receive no additional
compensation for overtime work, i.e., work in excess of 8 hours in any one
calendar day or 40 hours in any one calendar week, even though such
overtime work may be required under emergency conditions and may be
ordered by the ENGINEER in writing. Additional compensation will be
paid the CONTRACTOR for overtime work in the event extra work is

6.03 ADJUSTING PROGRESS SCHEDULE
A. The CONTRACTOR shall submit any adjustments in the progress
schedule to the ENGINEER for acceptance in accordance with the
provisions for “Contractor Submittals” in the General Requirements.
6.04 SUBSTITUTES AND “OR-EQUAL” ITEMS
A. Whenever an item of material or equipment is specified or described in the
Contract Documents by using the name of a proprietary item or the name
of a particular Supplier, the specification or description is intended to
establish the type, function, appearance, and quality required. Unless the
specification or description contains or is followed by words reading that
no like, equivalent, or “or-equal” item or no substitution is permitted, other
items of material or equipment or material or equipment of other Suppliers
may be submitted to ENGINEER for review under the circumstances
described below.
1. “Or-Equal” Items: If in ENGINEER’s sole discretion an item of
material or equipment proposed by CONTRACTOR is functionally
equal to that named and sufficiently similar so that no change in
related Work will be required, it may be considered by ENGINEER
as an “or-equal” item, in which case review and approval of the
proposed item may, in ENGINEER’s sole discretion, be
accomplished without compliance with some or all of the
requirements for approval of proposed substitute items. For the
purposes of this paragraph 6.04.A.1, a proposed item of material or
equipment will be considered functionally equal to an item so
named if:
a in the exercise of reasonable judgment ENGINEER
determines that: (i) it is at least equal in quality, durability,
appearance, strength, and design characteristics; (ii) it will
reliably perform at least equally well the function imposed by
the design concept of the completed Project as a functioning
whole, and;
b CONTRACTOR certifies that: (i) there is no increase in cost
to the OWNER; and (ii) it will conform substantially, even
with deviations, to the detailed requirements of the item
named in the Contract Documents.
2. Substitute Items
a If in ENGINEER’s sole discretion an item of material or
equipment proposed by CONTRACTOR does not qualify as
an “or-equal” item under paragraph 6.04.A.1, it will be
considered a proposed substitute item.
Hazen and Sawyer Consultant Project No.: 70088-001
01/04/2024
MWDSLS – District Project No.: SA021 General Conditions
Cottonwoods Connection Page 00700-16
b CONTRACTOR shall submit sufficient information as
provided below to allow ENGINEER to determine that the
item of material or equipment proposed is essentially
equivalent to that named and an acceptable substitute
therefore. Requests for review of proposed substitute items
of material or equipment will not be accepted by ENGINEER
from anyone other than CONTRACTOR.
c The procedure for review by ENGINEER will be as set forth
in paragraph 6.04.A.2.d, as supplemented in the General
Requirements and as ENGINEER may decide is appropriate
under the circumstances.
d CONTRACTOR shall first make written application to
ENGINEER for review of a proposed substitute item of
material or equipment that CONTRACTOR seeks to furnish
or use. The application shall certify that the proposed
substitute item will perform adequately the functions and
achieve the results called for by the general design, be
similar in substance to that specified, and be suited to the
same use as that specified. The application will state the
extent, if any, to which the use of the proposed substitute
item will prejudice CONTRACTOR’s achievement of
Substantial Completion on time, whether or not use of the
proposed substitute item in the Work will require a change in
any of the Contract Documents (or in the provisions of any
other direct contract with OWNER for work on the Project) to
adapt the design to the proposed substitute item and
whether or not incorporation or use of the proposed
substitute item in connection with the Work is subject to
payment of any license fee or royalty. All variations of the
proposed substitute item from that specified will be identified
in the application, and available engineering, sales,
maintenance, repair, and replacement services will be
indicated. The application will also contain an itemized
estimate of all costs or credits that will result directly or
indirectly from use of such substitute item, including costs of
redesign and claims of other contractors affected by any
resulting change, all of which will be considered by
ENGINEER in evaluating the proposed substitute item.
ENGINEER may require CONTRACTOR to furnish
additional data about the proposed substitute item.
B. Substitute Construction Methods or Procedures: If a specific means,
method, technique, sequence, or procedure of construction is shown or
indicated in and expressly required by the Contract Documents,
CONTRACTOR may furnish or utilize a substitute means, method,
Hazen and Sawyer Consultant Project No.: 70088-001
01/04/2024
MWDSLS – District Project No.: SA021 General Conditions
Cottonwoods Connection Page 00700-17
technique, sequence, or procedure of construction approved by
ENGINEER. CONTRACTOR shall submit sufficient information to allow
ENGINEER, in ENGINEER’s sole discretion, to determine that the
substitute proposed is equivalent to that expressly called for by the
Contract Documents. The procedure for review by ENGINEER will be
similar to that provided in subparagraph 6.04.A.2.
C. ENGINEER’s Evaluation: ENGINEER will be allowed a reasonable time
within which to evaluate each proposal or submittal made pursuant to
paragraphs 6.04.A and 6.04.B. ENGINEER will be the sole judge of
acceptability. No “or-equal” or substitute will be ordered, installed or
utilized until ENGINEER’s review is complete, which will be evidenced by
either a Change Order for a substitute or an approved Shop Drawing for
an “or- equal”. ENGINEER will advise CONTRACTOR in writing of any
negative determination.
D. Special Guarantee: OWNER may require CONTRACTOR to furnish at
CONTRACTOR’s expense a special performance guarantee or other
surety with respect to any substitute.
E. ENGINEER’s Cost Reimbursement: ENGINEER will record time required
by ENGINEER and ENGINEER’s Consultants in evaluating substitute
proposed or submitted by CONTRACTOR pursuant to paragraphs
6.04.A.2 and 6.04.B and in making changes in the Contract Documents
(or in the provisions of any other direct contract with OWNER for work on
the Project) occasioned thereby. Whether or not ENGINEER approves a
substitute item so proposed or submitted by CONTRACTOR,
CONTRACTOR shall reimburse OWNER for the charges of ENGINEER
and ENGINEER’s Consultants for evaluating each such proposed
substitute.
F. CONTRACTOR’s Expense: CONTRACTOR shall provide all data in
support of any proposed substitute or “or-equal” at CONTRACTOR’s
expense.
6.05 SUBCONTRACTORS, SUPPLIERS, AND OTHERS
A. The CONTRACTOR shall be responsible to the OWNER and the
ENGINEER for the acts and omissions of its subcontractors and their
employees to the same extent as the CONTRACTOR is responsible for
the acts and omissions of its own employees. Nothing contained in this
paragraph shall create any contractual relationship between any
subcontractor and the OWNER or the ENGINEER nor relieve the
CONTRACTOR of any liability or obligation under the Agreement.

invention, design, process, product, or device is specified in the Contract
Documents for incorporation into or use in the construction of the WORK
and if to the actual knowledge of the OWNER or the ENGINEER its use is
subject to patent rights or copyrights calling for the payment of any license
fee or royalty to others, the existence of these rights shall be disclosed by
the OWNER in the Contract Documents. The CONTRACTOR shall
indemnify, defend and hold harmless the OWNER and the ENGINEER
and anyone directly or indirectly employed by either of them from and
against all claims, damages, losses, and expenses (including attorneys'
fees and court costs) arising out of any infringement of patent rights or
copyrights incident to the use in the performance of the WORK or resulting
from the incorporation in the WORK of any invention, design, process,
product, or device not specified in the Contract Documents.
C. CONTRACTOR shall obtain a SWPPP construction general permit if
disturbing more than 1 acre, and a fugitive dust permit if disturbing over
0.25 acres. Both permits are issued by the Utah Department of
Environmental Quality. For bid purposes, the CONTRACTOR’S bid price
shall include $500 for the fee. The Contract Price will be adjusted by
Change Order once the actual permit fee is determined.
6.07 LAWS AND REGULATIONS
A. The CONTRACTOR shall observe and comply with all Laws and
Regulations which in any manner affect those engaged or employed on
the WORK, the materials used in the WORK, or the conduct of the WORK.
If any discrepancy or inconsistency should be discovered in the Contract

CONTRACTOR shall promptly settle the claim by agreement, or resolve
the claim through litigation. The CONTRACTOR shall, to the fullest extent
permitted by Laws and Regulations, indemnify, defend, and hold the
OWNER and the ENGINEER harmless from and against all claims,
damages, losses, and expenses (including, but not limited to, fees of
engineers, architects, attorneys, and other professionals and court costs)
arising directly, indirectly, or consequentially out of any action, legal or
equitable, brought by any owner or occupant of land against the OWNER

CONTRACTOR or CONTRACTOR’s employees or contractors be
reapportioned to OWNER, its officers, trustees or employees.
CONTRACTOR shall indemnify and hold OWNER and its officers,
trustees and employees harmless from any such reapportionment of fault.
The described duty to defend and indemnify is not intended to run to the
benefit of any OWNER liability insurer to the extent such insurer would be
responsible for defense costs or indemnity beyond OWNER’s deductible
or self-insured retention.
B. The indemnification obligation under this Paragraph shall not be limited in
any way by any limitation of the amount or type of damages,
compensation, or benefits payable by or for the CONTRACTOR or any
such subcontractor or other person or organization under workers'
compensation acts, disability benefit acts, or other employee benefit acts.
6.15 CONTRACTOR’S DAILY REPORTS
A. The CONTRACTOR shall complete a daily report indicating manpower,

safe access to the site and a reasonable opportunity for the introduction
and storage of materials and equipment and the execution of the other
work. The CONTRACTOR shall properly connect and coordinate the
WORK with the other work. The CONTRACTOR shall do all cutting, fitting,
and patching of the WORK that may be required to make its several parts
come together properly and integrate with the other work. The
CONTRACTOR shall not endanger any work of others by cutting,
excavating, or otherwise altering their work and shall only cut or alter their
work with the written consent of the ENGINEER and the others whose
work will be affected.
C. If the proper execution or results of any part of the CONTRACTOR’s work
depends upon the integration of work with the completion of other work by
any other contractor or utility owner (or the OWNER), the CONTRACTOR
shall inspect and report to the ENGINEER in writing all delays, defects, or
deficiencies in the other work that renders it unavailable or unsuitable for
proper integration with the CONTRACTOR’s work. Except for the results
or effects of material latent defects and deficiencies in the other work
which could not reasonably have been discovered by the CONTRACTOR,
the CONTRACTOR’s failure to report will constitute an acceptance of the
other work as fit and proper for integration with the CONTRACTOR’s work
and as a waiver of any claim for additional time or compensation
associated with the integration of the CONTRACTOR’s work with the other
work.
7.02 COORDINATION

described in the Contact Documents when such variations do not involve
an adjustment in the Contract Price or the Contract Time and are
consistent with the overall intent of the Contract Documents. These
variations shall be accomplished by issuing a Field Order. The issuance
of a Field Order requires the CONTRACTOR to perform the work
described in the order promptly. If the CONTRACTOR believes that a
Field Order justifies an increase in the Contract Price or an extension of
the Contract Time and the parties are unable to agree as to the amount or
extent thereof, the CONTRACTOR may make a claim therefor as provided
in Article 11 and 12.
9.06 REJECTION OF DEFECTIVE WORK
A. The ENGINEER is authorized to reject work which the ENGINEER

claim.
B. When reviewing the claim or dispute, the ENGINEER will not show
partiality to the OWNER or the CONTRACTOR and will incur no liability in
connection with any interpretation or decision rendered in good faith. The
ENGINEER’s rendering of a decision with respect to any claim, dispute, or
other matter (except any which have been waived by the making or
acceptance of final payment as provided in Paragraph 14.12) shall be a
condition precedent to the OWNER’s or the CONTRACTOR’s exercise of
their rights or remedies under the Contract Documents or by Law or
Regulations with respect to the claim, dispute, or other matter.
9.09 LIMITATION ON ENGINEER’S RESPONSIBILITIES
A. Neither the ENGINEER’s authority to act pursuant to its agreement with
the OWNER, nor the description of that authority under this Article 9, nor
any other description of the ENGINEER’s responsibility in the Contract
Documents nor any decision made by the ENGINEER in good faith either
to exercise or not exercise its authority shall give rise to any duty or
responsibility on the part of the ENGINEER to the CONTRACTOR, any
Subcontractor, any Supplier, any surety or any other person or
organization performing any part of the WORK.
Hazen and Sawyer Consultant Project No.: 70088-001

B. Whenever in the Contract Documents the terms “as ordered,” “as
directed,” “as required,” as allowed,” “as reviewed,” “as approved,” or
terms of like effect or import are used, or the adjectives “reasonable,”
“suitable,” “acceptable,” “proper,” or “satisfactory” or adjectives of like
effect or import are used to describe a requirement, direction, review, or
judgement of the ENGINEER as to the WORK, it is intended that such
requirement, direction, review, or judgment will be solely to evaluate the
WORK for compliance with the Contract Documents, unless there is a
specific statement indicating otherwise. The use of any such term or
adjective shall not be effective to assign to the ENGINEER any duty or
authority to supervise or direct the performance of the WORK or any duty
or authority to undertake responsibility contrary to the provisions of its
agreement with the OWNER.
C. The ENGINEER will not be responsible for the CONTRACTOR’s means,
methods, techniques, sequences, or procedures of construction not
specified in the Contact Documents. Neither the OWNER nor the
ENGINEER shall have any responsibility for safety precautions or
programs on site or for the safety of CONTRACTOR’s employees,
Subcontractors, employees of Subcontractors, Suppliers, employees of
Suppliers, or others on site.
D. The ENGINEER will not be responsible for the acts or omissions of the
CONTRACTOR nor of any Subcontractor, Supplier, or any other person or
organization performing any of the WORK to the extent that such acts or
omissions are not reasonably discoverable considering the level of
observation and inspection required by the ENGINEER’s agreement with
the OWNER.
ARTICLE 10 – CHANGES IN THE WORK
10.01 GENERAL
A. Without invalidating the Agreement and without notice to any surety, the
OWNER may at any time or from time to time, order additions, deletions,
or revisions in the WORK; these will be authorized by a written Field Order
issued by the ENGINEER and/or a Change Order. Upon receipt of any of
these documents, the CONTRACTOR shall promptly proceed with the
work involved pursuant to the applicable conditions of the Contract
Documents.
B. If the OWNER and the CONTRACTOR are unable to agree upon the
increase or decrease in the Contract Price or an extension or shortening
of the Contract Time, if any, that should be allowed as a result of a Field
Order, a claim may be made therefor as provided in Articles 11 and 12.
Hazen and Sawyer Consultant Project No.: 70088-001
01/04/2024
MWDSLS – District Project No.: SA021 General Conditions
Cottonwoods Connection Page 00700-28
C. The CONTRACTOR shall not be entitled to an increase in the Contract
Price nor an extension of the Contract Time with respect to any work
performed that is not required by the Contact Documents as amended,
modified, or supplemented by Change Order, except in the case of an
emergency and except in the case of uncovering work provided in the
Paragraph 13.03G.
D. The OWNER and the CONTRACTOR shall execute appropriate Change
Orders covering:
1. Changes in the WORK which are ordered by the OWNER pursuant
to Paragraph 10.01A;
2. Changes required because of acceptance of defective work under
Paragraph 13.06;
3. Changes in the Contract Price or Contact Time which are agreed to
by the parties;
4. Adjustments for inflation under GC 9.05 of the Cottonwoods
Connection Welded Steel Pipe Preselection contract documents ; or
5. Any other changes agreed to by the parties.
6. Any construction contract change order which increases the
contract amount shall have the prior written certification of the
OWNER’s general manager that the expenditure of the change
order amount is properly authorized by the OWNER’s board of
trustees consistent with the OWNER’s budget and financial
management policies and the instructions of the board of trustees.
E. If the provisions of any Bond require notice of any change to be given to a
surety, the giving of these notices will be the CONTRACTOR’s
responsibility. The CONTRACTOR shall provide for the amount of each
applicable Bond to be adjusted accordingly.
10.02 ALLOWABLE QUANTITY VARIATIONS
A. Whenever a unit price and quantity have been established for a bid item in
the Contract Documents, the quantity stated may be increased or
decreased to a maximum of 25 percent with no change in the unit price.
An adjustment in the quantity in excess of 25 percent will be sufficient to
justify a change in the unit price. All changes in the quantities of bid items
shall be documented by Change Order.
B. In the event a part of the WORK is to be entirely eliminated and no lump
sum or unit price is named in the Contract Documents to cover the
eliminated work, the price of the eliminated work shall be agreed upon in
Hazen and Sawyer Consultant Project No.: 70088-001
01/04/2024
MWDSLS – District Project No.: SA021 General Conditions
Cottonwoods Connection Page 00700-29
writing by the OWNER and the CONTRACTOR. If the OWNER and the
CONTRACTOR fail to agree upon the price of the eliminated work, the
price shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of Article 11.
ARTICLE 11 – CHANGE OF CONTRACT PRICE
11.01 GENERAL
A. The Contact Price constitutes the total compensation payable to the
CONTRACTOR for performing the WORK. Except as directed by Change
Orders, all duties, responsibilities, and obligations assigned to or
undertaken by the CONTRACTOR shall be at its expense without change
in the Contract Price.
B. The Contract Price may only be changed by a Change Order. Any claim
for an increase in the Contact Price shall be based on written notice
delivered by the CONTRACTOR to the ENGINEER promptly (but in no
event later than 30 days) after the occurrence of the event giving rise to
the claim and stating the general nature of the claim. Notice of the
amount of the claim with supporting data shall be delivered with the claim,
unless the ENGINEER allows an additional period of time to ascertain
more accurate data in support of the claim, and shall be accompanied by
the CONTRACTOR’s written statement that the amount claimed covers all
known amounts (direct, indirect, and consequential) to which the
CONTRACTOR is entitled as a result of the occurrence of the event. If the
OWNER and the CONTRACTOR cannot otherwise agree on the amount
involved, all claims for adjustment in the Contract Price shall be
determined by the ENGINEER in accordance with Paragraph 9.08A. No
claim for an adjustment in the Contact Price will be valid if not submitted in
accordance with this paragraph.
C. The value of any work covered by a Change Order or of any claim for an
increase or decrease in the Contact Price shall be determined in one of
the following ways:
1. Where the work involved is covered by unit prices contained in the
Contract Documents, by application of unit prices to the quantities
of the items involved.
2. By mutual acceptance of a lump sum, which may include an
allowance for overhead and profit not necessarily in accordance
with Paragraph 11.04.
3. On the basis of the cost of work (determined as provided in
Paragraphs 11.02 and 11.03) plus a CONTRACTOR’s fee for
overhead and profit (determined as provided in Paragraph 11.04).

MWDSLS – District Project No.: SA021 General Conditions
Cottonwoods Connection Page 00700-30
11.02 COST OF WORK (BASED ON TIME AND MATERIALS)
A. General: The term “cost of work” means the sum of all costs necessarily
incurred and paid by the CONTRACTOR for labor, materials, and
equipment in the proper performance of work. Except as otherwise may
be agreed to in writing by the OWNER, such costs shall be in amounts no
higher than those prevailing in the locality of the Project.
B. Labor: The cost of labor used in performing work by the CONTRACTOR,
a Subcontractor, or other forces will be the sum of the following:
1. The actual wages paid plus any employer payments to, or on behalf
of workers for fringe benefits including health and welfare, pension,
vacation, and similar purposes. The cost of labor may include the
rates paid to foremen when determined by the ENGINEER that the
services of foremen do not constitute a part of the overhead
allowance.
2. All payments imposed by state and federal laws including, but not
limited to, compensation insurance, and social security payments.
3. The amount paid for subsistence and travel required by collective
bargaining agreements, or in accordance with the regular practice
of the employer.
At the beginning of the extra work and as later requested by the ENGINEER,
the CONTRACTOR shall furnish the ENGINEER proof of labor compensation
rates being paid.
C. Materials: The cost of materials used in performing work will be the cost
to the purchaser, whether CONTRACTOR or Subcontractor, from the
Supplier thereof, except as the following are applicable:
1. Trade discounts available to the purchase shall be credited to the
OWNER notwithstanding the fact that such discounts may not have
been taken by the CONTRACTOR.
2. For materials secured by other than a direct purchase and direct
billing to the purchaser, the cost shall be deemed to be the price
paid to the actual Supplier as determined by the ENGINEER.
Markup except for actual costs incurred in the handling of such
materials will not be allowed.
3. Payment for materials from sources owned wholly or in part by the
purchaser shall not exceed the price paid by the purchaser for
similar materials from these sources on extra work items or current
wholesale price for the materials delivered to the work site,
whichever is lower.
Hazen and Sawyer Consultant Project No.: 70088-001
01/04/2024
MWDSLS – District Project No.: SA021 General Conditions
Cottonwoods Connection Page 00700-31
4. If, in the opinion of the ENGINEER, the cost of material is
excessive, or the CONTRACTOR does not furnish satisfactory
evidence of the cost of the material, then the cost shall be deemed
to be the lowest current wholesale price for the quantity concerned,
delivered to the work site less trade discount. The OWNER
reserves the right to furnish materials for the extra work and no
claim shall be made by the CONTRACTOR for costs and profit on
such materials.
D. Equipment: The CONTRACTOR will be paid for the use of equipment at
the rental rate listed for the equipment specified in the Rental Rate Blue
Book published by Dataquest, Inc. The rental rate will be used to compute
payments for equipment whether the equipment is under the
CONTRACTOR’s control through direct ownership, leasing, renting, or
another method of acquisition. The rental rate to be applied for use of
each item of equipment shall be the rate resulting in the least total cost to
the OWNER for the total period of use.
1. All equipment shall, in the opinion of the ENGINEER, be in good
working condition and suitable for the purpose for which the
equipment is to be used.
2. Before construction equipment is used on the extra work, the
CONTRACTOR shall plainly stencil or stamp an identifying number
thereon at a conspicuous location, and shall furnish to the
ENGINEER, in duplicate, a description of the equipment and its
identifying number.
3. Unless otherwise specified, manufacturers' ratings and
manufacturer-approved modifications shall be used to classify
equipment for the determination of applicable rental rates.
Equipment which has no direct power unit shall be powered by a
unit of at least the minimum rating recommended by the
manufacturer.
4. Individual pieces of equipment or tools having a replacement value
of $100 or less, whether or not consumed by use, shall be
considered to be small tools and no payment will be made
therefore.
5. Rental time will not be allowed while equipment is inoperative due
to breakdowns.
E. Equipment on the Work: The rental time to be paid for equipment used on
the WORK shall be the time the equipment is in productive operation on
the extra work being performed and, in addition, shall include the time
required to move the equipment to the location of the extra work and
Hazen and Sawyer Consultant Project No.: 70088-001
01/04/2024
MWDSLS – District Project No.: SA021 General Conditions
Cottonwoods Connection Page 00700-32
return it to the original location or to another location that requires no more
moving time than that required to return it to its original location. Moving
time will not be paid if the equipment is used on other than the extra work,
even though located at the site of the extra work. Loading and transporting
costs will be allowed, in lieu of moving time, when the equipment is moved
by means other than its own power. However, no payment will be made
for loading and transporting costs when the equipment is used on other
than the extra work even though located at the site of the extra work. The
following shall be used in computing the rental time of equipment on the
WORK.
1. When hourly rates are listed, any part of an hour less than 30
minutes of operation shall be considered to be 1/2-hour of
operation, and any part of an hour in excess of 30 minutes will be
considered one hour of operation.
2. When daily rates are listed, any part of a day less than 4 hours
operation shall be considered to be 1/2-day of operation. When
owner-operated equipment is used to perform extra work to be paid
for on a time and materials basis, the CONTRACTOR will be paid
for the equipment and operator, as set forth in Paragraph (3), (4),
and (5), following.
3. Payment for the equipment will be made in accordance with the
provisions in Paragraph 11.02D, herein.
4. Payment for the cost of labor and subsistence or travel allowance
will be made at the rates paid by the CONTRACTOR to other
workers operating similar equipment already on the WORK, or in
the absence of such labor, established by collective bargaining
agreements for the type of workmen and location of the extra work,
whether or not the operator is actually covered by such an
agreement. A labor surcharge will be added to the cost of labor
described herein in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph
11.02B, herein, which surcharge shall constitute full compensation
for payments imposed by state and federal laws and all payments
made to on behalf of workers other than actual wages.
5. To the direct cost of equipment rental and labor, computed as
provided herein, will be added the allowances for equipment rental
and labor as provided in Paragraph 11.04, herein.
11.03 SPECIAL SERVICES
A. Special work or services are defined as that work characterized by
extraordinary complexity, sophistication, or innovation or a combination of
the foregoing attributes which are unique to the construction industry. The
Hazen and Sawyer Consultant Project No.: 70088-001
01/04/2024
MWDSLS – District Project No.: SA021 General Conditions
Cottonwoods Connection Page 00700-33
following may be considered by the ENGINEER in making estimates for
payment for special services:
1. When the ENGINEER and the CONTRACTOR, by agreement,
determine that a special service or work is required which cannot
be performed by the forces of the CONTRACTOR or those of any
of its Subcontractors, the special service or work may be performed
by an entity especially skilled in the work to be performed. After
validation of invoices and determination of market values by the
ENGINEER, invoices for special services or work based upon the
current fair market value thereof may be accepted without complete
itemization of labor, material, and equipment rental cost.
2. When the CONTRACTOR is required to perform work necessitating
special fabrication or machining process in a fabrication or a
machine shop facility away from the job site, the charges for that
portion of the work performed at the off-site facility may by
agreement, be accepted as a special service and accordingly, the
invoices from the work may be accepted without detailed
itemization.
3. All invoices for special services will be adjusted by deducting all
trade discounts offered or available, whether the discounts were
taken or not. In lieu of the allowances for overhead and profit
specified in Paragraph 11.04, herein, an allowance of 5 percent will
be added to invoices for special services.
B. All work performed hereunder shall be subject to all of the provisions of
the Contract Documents and the CONTRACTOR’s sureties shall be
bound with reference hereto as under the original Agreement. Copies of
all amendments to surety bonds or supplemental surety bonds shall be
submitted to the OWNER for review prior to the performance of any work
hereunder.
11.04 CONTRACTOR’S FEE
A. Work ordered on the basis of time and materials will be paid for at the
actual necessary cost as determined by the ENGINEER, plus allowances
for overhead and profit. For extra work involving a combination of
increases and decreases in the WORK, the actual necessary cost will be
the arithmetic sum of the additive and deductive costs. The allowance for
overhead and profit shall include full compensation for superintendence,
bond and insurance premiums, taxes, office expenses, and all other items
of expense or cost not included in the cost of labor, materials, or
equipment provided for under Paragraphs 11.02B, C, and D herein,
including extended overhead and home office overhead. The allowance
Hazen and Sawyer Consultant Project No.: 70088-001
01/04/2024
MWDSLS – District Project No.: SA021 General Conditions
Cottonwoods Connection Page 00700-34
for overhead and profit will be made in accordance with the following
schedule:
OVERHEAD AND PROFIT ALLOWANCE
Labor ..................... 10 percent
Materials ................ 10 percent
Equipment ............. 10 percent
B. It is understood that labor, materials, and equipment may be furnished by
the CONTRACTOR or by a Subcontractor, and that the allowance
specified herein shall be applied to the labor, materials, and equipment
costs of the Subcontractor, to which the CONTRACTOR may add 5
percent of the Subcontractor’s total cost of work. Regardless of the
number of hierarchical tiers of Subcontractors, the 5- percent markup may
be applied one time only for each separate work transaction.
ARTICLE 12 – CHANGE OF CONTRACT TIME
12.01 GENERAL
A. The Contract Time may only be changed by a Change Order. Any claim
for an extension of the Contract time shall be based on written notice
delivered by the CONTRACTOR to the ENGINEER promptly (but in no
event later than 30 days) after the occurrence of the event giving rise to
the claim and stating the general nature of the claim. Notice of the extent
of the claim with supporting data shall be delivered within 30 days after
such occurrence (unless the ENGINEER allows an additional period of
time to ascertain more accurate data in support of the claim) and shall be
accompanied by the CONTRACTOR’s written statement that the
adjustment claimed is the entire adjustment to which the CONTRACTOR
has reason to believe it is entitled as a result of the occurrence of said
event. Claims for adjustment in the Contract Time shall be determined by
the ENGINEER in accordance with Paragraph 9.08 if the OWNER and the
CONTRACTOR cannot otherwise agree. No claim for an adjustment in
the Contract Time will be valid if not submitted in accordance with the
requirements of this paragraph.
B. The Contract Time will be extended in an amount equal to time lost if the
CONTRACTOR makes a claim as provided in Paragraph 12.01A and the
ENGINEER determines that the delay was caused by events beyond the
control of the CONTRACTOR. Examples of events beyond the control of
the CONTRACTOR include acts or neglect by the OWNER or others
performing additional work as contemplated by Article 7, or by acts of God
or of the public enemy, fire, floods, epidemics, quarantine restrictions,
strikes, labor disputes, sabotage, or freight embargoes.
Hazen and Sawyer Consultant Project No.: 70088-001
01/04/2024
MWDSLS – District Project No.: SA021 General Conditions
Cottonwoods Connection Page 00700-35
C. All time limits stated in the Contract Documents are of the essence.
D. None of the aforesaid time extensions shall entitle the CONTRACTOR to
any adjustment in the Contract Price or any damages for delay.
Furthermore, the CONTRACTOR hereby indemnifies and holds harmless
the OWNER and ENGINEER, their officers, agents and employees from
and against all claims, damages, losses and expenses (including lost
property and attorney's fees) arising out of or resulting from the temporary
suspension of work whether for the OWNER’s convenience as defined in
Article 15.01A or for whatever other reasons including the stoppage of
work by the ENGINEER for the CONTRACTOR’s failure to comply with
any order issued by the ENGINEER.
12.02 EXTENSIONS OF THE TIME FOR DELAY DUE TO INCLEMENT WEATHER
A. “Inclement weather” is any weather condition or conditions resulting
immediately therefrom, causing the CONTRACTOR to suspend
construction operations or preventing the CONTRACTOR from proceeding
with at least 75 percent of the normal labor and equipment force engaged
on the WORK.
B. Should the CONTRACTOR prepare to begin work at the regular starting
time at the beginning of any regular work shift on any day on which
inclement weather, or its effects on the condition of the WORK prevents
work from beginning at the usual starting time and the crew is dismissed
as a result thereof, the CONTRACTOR will not be charged for a working
day whether or not conditions change thereafter during the day and the
major portion of the day could be considered to be suitable for
construction operations.
C. The CONTRACTOR shall base its construction schedule upon the
inclusion of the number of days of inclement weather specified in the
Supplementary General Conditions. No extension of the Contact Time
due to inclement weather will be considered until after the stated number
of days of inclement weather has been reached. However, no reduction in
Contract Time will be made if the number of inclement weather days is not
reached.
D. The CONTRACTOR’s construction schedule shall be based on the
inclusion of at least 7 days of unseasonable inclement weather delays.
12.03 EXTENSIONS OF TIME FOR OTHER DELAYS
A. If the CONTRACTOR is delayed in completion of the WORK beyond the
Contract Time, by acts of God or of the public enemy, fire, floods,
epidemics, quarantine restrictions, strikes, labor disputes, industry-wide
shortage of raw materials, sabotage or freight embargoes, the
CONTRACTOR shall be entitled to an adjustment in the Contract Time.
Hazen and Sawyer Consultant Project No.: 70088-001
01/04/2024
MWDSLS – District Project No.: SA021 General Conditions
Cottonwoods Connection Page 00700-36
No such adjustment will be made unless the CONTRACTOR shall notify
the ENGINEER in writing of the causes of delay within 15 calendar days
from the beginning of any such delay. The ENGINEER shall ascertain the
facts and the extent of the delay. No adjustment in time shall be made for
delays resulting from noncompliance with the Contract Documents,
accidents, failure on the part of the CONTRACTOR to carry out the
provisions of the Contract Documents including failure to provide
materials, equipment or workmanship meeting the requirements of the
Contract Documents; the occurrence of such events shall not relieve the
CONTRACTOR from the necessity of maintaining the required progress.
B. If the CONTRACTOR is delayed in completing the WORK beyond the
Contract Time by reason of shortages of raw materials required for
CONTRACTOR-furnished items, the CONTRACTOR shall be entitled to
an adjustment in the Contract Time in like manner as if the WORK had
been suspended for the convenience and benefit of the OWNER;
provided, however, that the CONTRACTOR shall furnish documentation
acceptable to the OWNER and ENGINEER that he placed or attempted to
place firm orders with Suppliers at a reasonable time in advance of the
required date of delivery of the items in question, that such shortages shall
have developed following the date such orders were placed or attempts
made to place same, that said shortages are general throughout the
affected industry, that said shortages are shortages of raw materials
required to manufacture CONTRACTOR-furnished items and not simply
failure of CONTRACTOR’s Suppliers to manufacture, assemble or ship
items on time, and that the CONTRACTOR shall, to the degree possible,
have made revisions in the sequence of his operations, within the terms of
the Contract Documents, to offset the expected delay. The
CONTRACTOR shall notify the ENGINEER, in writing, concerning the
cause of delay, within 15 calendar days of the beginning of such delay.
The validity of any claim by the CONTRACTOR to an adjustment in the
Contract Time shall be determined by the OWNER acting through the
ENGINEER, and his findings thereon shall be based on the ENGINEER’s
knowledge and observations of the events involved and documentation
submitted by the CONTRACTOR, showing all applicable facts relative to
the foregoing provisions. Only the physical shortage of raw materials will
be considered under these provisions as a cause for adjustment of time
and no consideration will be given to any claim that items could not be
obtained at a reasonable, practical, or economical cost or price, unless it
is shown to the satisfaction of the OWNER that such items could have
been obtained only at exorbitant prices entirely out of line with current
rates taking into account the quantities involved and the usual practices in
obtaining such quantities.
C. If the CONTRACTOR is delayed in completion of the WORK by any act of
the ENGINEER or of the OWNER not authorized by the Contract
Documents, an adjustment in the Contract Time will be made by the
Hazen and Sawyer Consultant Project No.: 70088-001
01/04/2024
MWDSLS – District Project No.: SA021 General Conditions
Cottonwoods Connection Page 00700-37
OWNER in like manner as if the WORK had been suspended for the
convenience and benefit of the OWNER. In the event of such delay, the
CONTRACTOR shall notify the ENGINEER in writing of the causes of
delay within 15 calendar days from the beginning of any such delay.
ARTICLE 13 – WARRANTY AND GUARANTEE; TESTS AND INSPECTIONS,
CORRECTION, REMOVAL, OR ACCEPTANCE OF DEFECTIVE WORK
13.01 WARRANTY, GUARANTEE AND CORRECTION PERIOD
A. The CONTRACTOR warrants and guarantees to the OWNER and the
ENGINEER that all work, equipment, materials and workmanship are in

ENGINEER shall be given to the CONTRACTOR. All defective work,
whether or not in place, may be rejected, corrected, or accepted a s
provided in this Article 13.
B. If within one (1) year after the date of final completion, as set by the
Contractor’s Certificate of Final Completion, or a longer period of time
prescribed by Laws or Regulations or by the terms of any applicable
special guarantee or specific provisions of the Contract Documents, any
part of the WORK is found to be defective, the OWNER shall notify the
CONTRACTOR in writing and the CONTRACTOR shall promptly, without
cost to the OWNER and in accordance with the OWNER’s written
notification, either correct the defective work, or, if it has been rejected by
the OWNER, remove it from the site and replace it with non-defective
work. In the event the CONTRACTOR does not promptly comply with the
notification, or in an emergency where delay would cause serious risk of
loss or damage, the OWNER may have the defective work corrected or
rejected work removed and replaced. All direct, indirect, and
consequential costs of the removal and replacement including but not
limited to fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys and other
professionals will be paid by the CONTRACTOR. This paragraph shall
not be construed to limit nor diminish the CONTRACTOR’s absolute
guarantee to complete the WORK in accordance with the Contract
Documents.
C. With respect to the WORK’s proximity to the Reservoir Overflow Structure
CONTRACTOR shall warranty the structure against settling for one (1)
year after the date of final completion or until a follow-up survey is
performed as described in Paragraphs 4.05 and 13.03 of the
Supplementary General Conditions, whichever is longer. Upon completion
of the survey, the OWNER will review the survey and inspect the

accordance with the OWNER’s written notification, either correct the
defective work, or, if it has been rejected by the OWNER, remove it from
the site and replace it with non-defective work. In the event the
CONTRACTOR does not promptly comply with the notification, or in an
emergency where delay would cause serious risk of loss or damage, the
OWNER may have the defective work corrected or rejected work removed
and replaced. All direct, indirect, and consequential costs of the removal
and replacement including but not limited to fees and charges of
engineers, architects, attorneys and other professionals will be paid by the
CONTRACTOR. This paragraph shall not be construed to limit nor
diminish the CONTRACTOR’s absolute guarantee to complete the WORK
in accordance with the Contract Documents.
13.02 ACCESS TO WORK
A. The ENGINEER, other representatives of the OWNER, testing agencies,
and governmental agencies with jurisdictional interests shall have access
to the work at reasonable times for their observation, inspections, and
testing. The CONTRACTOR shall provide proper and safe conditions for
their access.
13.03 TESTS AND INSPECTIONS
A. The CONTRACTOR shall give the ENGINEER timely notice of readiness
of the WORK for all required inspections, tests, or approvals.
B. If Laws or Regulations of any public body other than the OWNER, with
jurisdiction over the WORK require any work to be specifically inspected,
tested, or approved, the CONTRACTOR shall pay all costs in connection
therewith. The CONTRACTOR shall also be responsible for and shall pay
all costs in connection with any inspection or testing required in
connection with the OWNER’s or the ENGINEER’s acceptance of a
Supplier of materials or equipment proposed as a substitution or "or -
equal" to be incorporated in the WORK and of materials or equipment
submitted for review prior to the CONTRACTOR’s purchase for
incorporation in the WORK. The cost of all inspections, tests, and
approvals, with the exception of the above which are required by the
Contract Documents, shall be paid by the OWNER (unless otherwise
specified).
C. The ENGINEER will make, or has made, such inspections and test as the
ENGINEER deems necessary to see that the WORK is being
accomplished in accordance with the Contract Documents. The
CONTRACTOR, without additional cost to the OWNER, shall provide the
labor and equipment necessary to make the WORK available for
inspections. Unless otherwise specified in the Supplementary General
Conditions, all other costs of inspection and testing will be borne by the
Hazen and Sawyer Consultant Project No.: 70088-001
01/04/2024
MWDSLS – District Project No.: SA021 General Conditions
Cottonwoods Connection Page 00700-39
OWNER. In the event the inspections or tests reveal non -compliance with
the requirements of the Contract Documents, the CONTRACTOR shall
bear the cost of corrective measures deemed necessary by the
ENGINEER, as well as the cost of subsequent re-inspection and retesting.
Neither observations by the ENGINEER nor inspections, tests, or
approvals by others shall relieve the CONTRACTOR from the
CONTRACTOR’s obligation to perform the WORK in accordance with the
Contract Documents.
D. All inspections, tests, or approvals other than those required by Laws or
Regulations of any public body having jurisdiction shall be performed by
properly licensed organizations selected by the OWNER.
E. If any work (including the work of others) that is to be inspected, tested, or
approved is covered without the ENGINEER’s written authorization, it
must, if requested by the ENGINEER, be uncovered for testing,
inspection, and observation. The uncovering shall be at the
CONTRACTOR’s expense unless the CONTRACTOR timely notified the
ENGINEER of the CONTRACTOR’s intention to cover the same and the
ENGINEER failed to act with reasonable promptness in response to the
notice.
F. If any work is covered contrary to the written request of the ENGINEER, it
must, if requested by the ENGINEER, be uncovered for the ENGINEER’s
observation at the CONTRACTOR’s expense.
G. If the ENGINEER considers it necessary or advisable that covered work
be observed, inspected or tested by the ENGINEER or others, the
ENGINEER shall direct the CONTRACTOR to uncover, expose, or
otherwise make available for observation, inspection, or testing that
portion of the work in question. The CONTRACTOR shall comply with the
ENGINEER’s direction and furnish all necessary labor, material, and
equipment. If the work is defective, the CONTRACTOR shall bear all
direct, indirect and consequential costs of uncovering, exposure,
observation, inspection, and testing and of satisfactory reconstruction of
the work, including, but not limited to, fees and charges for engineers,
architects, attorneys, and other professionals. However, if the work is not
defective, the CONTRACTOR shall be allowed an increase in the Contract
Price or an extension of the Contract Time, or both. The increase in
Contract Time and Contract Price shall be the CONTRACTOR’s actual
time and costs directly attributable to uncovering and exposing the work.
If the parties are unable to agree as to the amount or extent of the
changes, the CONTRACTOR may make a claim therefore as provided in
Articles 11 and 12.

13.04 OWNER MAY STOP THE WORK
A. If the WORK is defective, or the CONTRACTOR fails to perform work in
such a way that the completed WORK will conform to the Contract
Documents, the OWNER may order the CONTRACTOR to stop the
WORK, or any portion thereof, until the cause for the order has been
eliminated. This right of the OWNER to stop the WORK shall not give rise
to any duty on the part of the OWNER to exercise this right for the benefit
of the CONTRACTOR or any other party.
13.05 CORRECTION OR REMOVAL OF DEFECTIVE WORK
A. When directed by the ENGINEER, the CONTRACTOR shall promptly
correct all defective work, whether or not fabricated, installed, or

from the site and replace it with non-defective work. The CONTRACTOR
shall bear all direct, indirect and consequential costs of correction or
removal, including but not limited to fees and charges of engineers,
architects, attorneys, and other professionals made necessary thereby. If
the CONTRACTOR does not correct the defective work within 30 days,
the OWNER may correct the WORK and charge the CONTRACTOR for
the cost of correcting the defective WORK.
13.06 ACCEPTANCE OF DEFECTIVE WORK
A. If, instead of requiring correction or removal and replacement of defective
work, the OWNER prefers to accept the work, the OWNER may do so.
The CONTRACTOR shall bear all direct, indirect, and consequential costs
attributable to the OWNER’s evaluation of and determination to accept the
defective work. If any acceptance of defective work occurs prior to final
payment, a Change Order will be issued incorporating the necessary
revisions in the Contact Documents with respect to the WORK, and the
OWNER shall be entitled to an appropriate decrease in the Contract Price.

CONTRACTOR.
D. The OWNER may retain five percent of the amount otherwise due to the
Contractor as retainage. Monies retained shall be placed in an interest-
bearing account for the benefit of the CONTRACTOR.
E. Except as otherwise provided in the Supplementary General Conditions,
the value of materials stored at the site shall be valued at 80 percent of
the value of the materials. This amount shall be based upon the value of
all acceptable materials and equipment stored at the site or at another
location agreed to in writing by the OWNER; provided, each individual
item has a value of more that $5,000 and will become a permanent part of
the WORK. The Application for Payment shall also be accompanied by a
bill of sale, invoice, or other documentation warranting that the
CONTRACTOR has received the materials and equipment free and clear
of all liens, charges, security interests, and encumbrances (which are
hereinafter referred to as “Liens”) and evidence that the materials and

present the Application to the OWNER, or return the Application to the
CONTRACTOR indicating in writing the ENGINEER’s reasons for refusing
to recommend payment. In the latter case, the CONTRACTOR may make
the necessary corrections and resubmit the Application. 30 days after
presentation of the Application for Payment with the ENGINEER’s
recommendation, the amount recommended will (subject to the provisions
of Paragraph 14.05B) become due and when due will be paid by the
OWNER to the CONTRACTOR.
B. The OWNER may refuse to make payment of the full amount
recommended by the ENGINEER to compensate for claims made by the
OWNER on account of the CONTRACTOR’s performance of the WORK
or other items entitling the OWNER to a credit against the amount
recommended, but the OWNER must give the CONTRACTOR written
notice within 7 days (with a copy to the ENGINEER) stating the reasons
for such action.
14.06 PARTIAL UTILIZATION
A. The OWNER may utilize or place into service any item of equipment or
other usable portion of the WORK at any time prior to completion of the
WORK. The OWNER shall notify the CONTRACTOR in writing of its
intent to exercise this right. The notice will identify the equipment or
specific portion or portions of the WORK to be utilized or otherwise placed
into service.
B. It shall be understood by the CONTRACTOR that until such written
notification is issued, all responsibility for care and maintenance of all

recommendation as to division of responsibilities between the OWNER
and the CONTRACTOR with respect to security, operation, safety,
maintenance, heat, utilities and insurance. Upon the OWNER’s
acceptance of these recommendations, the ENGINEER’s aforesaid
recommendation will be binding on the OWNER and the CONTRACTOR
until final payment.

completion of the WORK, regardless of whether a portion thereof has
been partially utilized by the OWNER, and the CONTRACTOR’s 1-year
correction period shall commence only after the date of Final Completion
for the WORK.

A. The CONTRACTOR shall, as provided in the Agreement, pay to the
OWNER as fixed, agreed, and liquidated damages, and not as a penalty,
for each calendar day’s delay in completion of the Work beyond the
Contract Time for Substantial Completion in the amount of $ 5,000. The
CONTRACTOR shall, as provided in the Agreement, pay to the OWNER
as fixed, agreed, and liquidated damages, and not as a penalty, for each
calendar day’s delay in completion of the Work beyond the Contract Time
for Final Completion in the amount of $ 1,000.
B. All times specified in the Contract Documents are hereby declared to be of
the essence.
14.08 SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION
A. When the CONTRACTOR considers the WORK ready for its intended
use, the CONTRACTOR will notify the OWNER and the ENGINEER in
writing that the WORK is Substantially Complete. Within a reasonable
time thereafter, the OWNER, the CONTRACTOR, and the ENGINEER
shall make an inspection of the WORK to determine the status of
completion. If the ENGINEER does not consider the WORK Substantially
Complete, the ENGINEER will notify the OWNER and CONTRACTOR in
writing giving the reasons therefor. If the ENGINEER considers the
WORK Substantially Complete, the ENGINEER will prepare and deliver to
the OWNER for its execution the Notice of Substantial Completion signed
by the ENGINEER and CONTRACTOR, which shall fix the date of
Substantial Completion.
B. The Notice of Substantial Completion shall be a release by the
CONTRACTOR of the OWNER and its agents from all claims and liability
to the CONTRACTOR for anything done or furnished for, or relating to, the
WORK or for any act or neglect of the OWNER or of any person relating to
or affecting the WORK, to the date of Substantial Completion, except
demands against the OWNER for the remainder of the amounts kept or
retained from progress payments and excepting pending, unresolved
claims filed in writing prior to the date of Substantial Completion. At the
time of delivery of the Notice of Substantial Completion, the ENGINEER
will deliver to the OWNER and the CONTRACTOR, if applicable, a written
recommendation as to division of responsibilities between the OWNER
and the CONTRACTOR with respect to security, operation, safety,
maintenance, heat, utilities and insurance. Upon the OWNER’s
acceptance of these recommendations, the ENGINEER’s
recommendation will be binding on the OWNER and the CONTRACTOR
until final payment.

C. The OWNER, upon written notice to the CONTRACTOR, shall have the
right to exclude the CONTRACTOR from the WORK after the date of
Substantial Completion, and complete all or portions of the WORK at the
CONTRACTOR’s expense.
14.09 COMPLETION AND FINAL PAYMENT
A. Upon written certification from the CONTRACTOR that the WORK is
complete (if a Notice of Substantial Completion has been issued this
certification must occur within 45 days of that date), the ENGINEER will
make a final inspection with the OWNER and the CONTRACTOR. If the
OWNER and ENGINEER do not consider the WORK complete, the
ENGINEER will notify the OWNER and the CONTRACTOR in writing of all
particulars in which this inspection reveals that the WORK is incomplete or
defective. The CONTRACTOR shall immediately take the measures
necessary to remedy these deficiencies. If the ENGINEER and OWNER
consider the WORK complete, the CONTRACTOR may proceed to file its
application for final payment pursuant to this Article. At the request of the
CONTRACTOR, the ENGINEER may recommend to the OWNER that
certain minor deficiencies in the WORK that do not prevent the entire
WORK from being used by the OWNER for its intended use, and the
completion of which will be unavoidably delayed due to no fault of the
CONTRACTOR, be exempted from being completed prerequisite to final
payment. These outstanding items of pickup work, or “punch list items,”
shall be listed on the Notice of Substantial Completion, together with the
recommended time limits for their completion, and extended warranty
requirements for those items and the value of such items.
B. After the issuance of the Notice of Completion and after the
CONTRACTOR has completed corrections that have not been exempted
to the satisfaction of the ENGINEER and delivered to the ENGINEER all
maintenance and operating instructions, schedules, guarantees, bonds,
certificates of inspection, marked-up record documents and other
documents, all as required by the Contract Documents; and after the
ENGINEER has indicated that the WORK is acceptable, the
CONTRACTOR may make application for final payment following the
procedure for progress payments. The final application for payment shall
be accompanied by all documentation called for in the Contract
Documents and other data and schedules as the OWNER or ENGINEER
may reasonably require, including an affidavit of the CONTRACTOR that
all labor, services, material, equipment and other indebtedness connected
with the WORK for which the OWNER or his property might in any way be
responsible, have been paid or otherwise satisfied, and a consent of the
payment bond surety to final payment, all in forms approved by the
OWNER.

14.10 FINAL APPLICATION FOR PAYMENT
A. If, on the basis of the ENGINEER’s observation of the WORK during
construction and final inspection, and the ENGINEER’s review of the final
application for payment and accompanying documentation, all as required
by the Contract Documents, the ENGINEER is satisfied that the WORK
has been completed and the CONTRACTOR has fulfilled all of his
obligations under the Contract Documents, the ENGINEER will, within ten
days after receipt of the final application for payment, indicate in writing his
recommendation of payment and present the application to the OWNER
for payment. Thereupon, the ENGINEER will give written notice to the
OWNER and the CONTRACTOR that the WORK is acceptable by
executing the Notice of Completion. Otherwise, the ENGINEER will return
the application to the CONTRACTOR, indicating in writing the reasons for
refusing to recommend final payment, in which case the CONTRACTOR
shall make the necessary corrections and resubmit the application.
B. Within 45 calendar days after the Notice of Completion, the OWNER will
make final payment including all deducted retainage and interest to the
CONTRACTOR. The OWNER’s remittance of final payment shall be the
OWNER’s acceptance of the WORK if formal acceptance of the WORK is
not indicated otherwise. The final payment shall be that amount remaining
after deducting all prior payments and all amounts to be kept or retained
under the provisions of the Contract, including the following items:
1. Liquidated or actual damages, as applicable.
2. Two times the value of any outstanding items of pickup work or
“punch list items”, indicated on the ENGINEER’s Notice of
Completion as being yet uncompleted.
14.11 CONTRACTOR’S CONTINUING OBLIGATIONS
A. The CONTRACTOR’s obligation to perform and complete the WORK in
accordance with the Contract Documents shall be absolute. Neither
recommendation of any progress or final payment by the ENGINEER, nor
the issuance of a Notice of Substantial Completion or Notice of
Completion, nor payment by the OWNER to the CONTRACTOR under the
Contract Documents, nor any use or occupancy of the WORK or any part
thereof by the OWNER, nor any act of acceptance by the OWNER nor any
failure to do so, nor any review of a shop drawing or sample submittal, will
constitute an acceptance of work or materials not in accordance with the
Contract Documents or a release of the CONTRACTOR’s obligation to
perform the WORK in accordance with the Contract Documents.

ARTICLE 15 – SUSPENSION OF WORK AND TERMINATION
15.01 SUSPENSION OF WORK BY OWNER
A. The OWNER acting through the ENGINEER may, by written notice to the
Contractor, temporarily suspend the WORK, in whole or in part, for a
period or periods of time, but not to exceed 90 days, for the convenience
and benefit of the OWNER upon the occurrence of any one or more of the
following: (1) unsuitable weather; (2) delay in delivery of OWNER -
furnished equipment or materials, or such other conditions as are
considered unfavorable for prosecution of the work; (3) shortfall in
construction funds; (4) constraints imposed by public entities, public
utilities, property owners or legal proceedings; (5) failure or delay in
acquisition of easements or right-of-way by the OWNER; or (6) other
conditions which, in the opinion of the OWNER, warrant a delay in the
WORK. Suspended WORK shall be resumed by the CONTRACTOR
within 10 calendar days of receipt from the ENGINEER of written notice to
resume work. Whenever the OWNER temporarily suspends work for any
conditions enumerated in this Article, the CONTRACTOR shall be entitled
to an adjustment in the Contract Time as specified in Article 12.03 C.
B. The suspension of work shall be effective upon receipt by the
CONTRACTOR of a written order suspending the work and shall be
terminated upon receipt by the Contractor of a written order terminating
the suspension.
C. The CONTRACTOR hereby indemnifies and holds harmless the OWNER
and ENGINEER, their officers, agents and employees, from and against
all claims, damages, losses and expenses, including lost profits and
attorney's fees, arising out of or resulting from the temporary suspension
of the WORK, whether for the OWNER’s convenience described in this
Article or for whatever other reasons, including the stoppage of work by

Cottonwoods Connection Page 00700-47
the ENGINEER for the CONTRACTOR’s failure to comply with any order
issued by the ENGINEER.
15.02 TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT BY OWNER (CONTRACTOR DEFAULT)
A. In the event of default by the CONTRACTOR, the OWNER may give
written notice to the CONTRACTOR of OWNER’s intent to terminate the
Agreement. The notice shall state the event of default and the time
allowed to remedy the default. It shall be considered a default by the
CONTRACTOR whenever the CONTRACTOR shall: (1) declare
bankruptcy, become insolvent, or assign its assets for the benefit of its
creditors; (2) fail to provide materials or workmanship meeting the
requirements of the Contract Documents; (3) disregard or violate
provisions of the Contract Documents or ENGINEER’s instructions, (4) fail
to prosecute the WORK according to the approved progress schedule; or,
(5) fail to provide a qualified superintendent, competent workmen, or

Notice of Termination.
B. In the event the Agreement is terminated in accordance with Paragraph
15.02A, the OWNER may take possession of the WORK and may
complete the WORK by whatever method or means the OWNER may
select. The cost of completing the WORK shall be deducted from the
balance which would have been due the CONTRACTOR had the
Agreement not been terminated and the WORK completed in accordance
with the Contract Documents. If such cost exceeds the balance which
would have been due, the CONTRACTOR shall pay the excess amount to
the OWNER. If such cost is less than the balance which would have been
due, the CONTRACTOR shall have no claim to the difference.
15.03 TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT BY OWNER (FOR CONVENIENCE)
A. The OWNER may terminate the Agreement at any time if it is found that
reasons beyond the control of either the OWNER or CONTRACTOR make
it impossible or against the OWNER’s interests to complete the WORK.
In such a case, the CONTRACTOR shall have no claims against the
OWNER except: (1) for the value of the work, as determined by the
ENGINEER, performed by the CONTRACTOR up to the date the
Agreement is terminated; and, (2) for the cost of materials and equipment
on hand, in transit, or on definite commitment, as of the date the
Agreement is terminated, which would be needed in the WORK and which
meet the requirements of the Contract Documents. The value of work
performed and the cost of materials and equipment delivered to the site,
as mentioned above, shall be determined by the ENGINEER in
accordance with the procedure prescribed from making the final

resume work or to terminate the agreement has not been received from
the OWNER within this time period; or, (2) the OWNER should fail to pay
the CONTRACTOR any monies due him in accordance with the terms of
the Contract Documents and within 60 days after presentation to the
OWNER by the CONTRACTOR of a request therefor, unless within said
10-day period the OWNER shall have remedied the condition upon which
the payment delay was based. In the event of such termination, the
CONTRACTOR shall have no claims against the OWNER except for
those claims specifically enumerated in Paragraph 15.03, and as
determined in accordance with the requirements of that paragraph.

1.03 DEFINITIONS
A. The following terminology is used in the Specifications and not defined in Section 00700
– General Conditions:
1. “Indicated” refers to graphic representations, notes, or schedules on the Drawings,
or to other paragraphs or schedules in the Specifications and similar locations in
the Contract Documents.
2. “Shown”, “noted”, “scheduled”, and “specified” are used to help the user locate the
reference without limitation on the location.
3. “Installer”, “applicator”, or “erector” is Contractor or another entity engaged by
Contractor, either as an employee or subcontractor, to perform a particular
construction activity, including installation, erection, application or similar Work.
Installers shall be experienced in the Work that installer is engaged to perform.
4. “Experienced”, when used with the term “installer” means having successfully
completed a minimum of five previous projects similar in size and scope to this
Project; being familiar with the special requirements indicated; being familiar with
Laws and Regulations; and having complied with requirements of authorities
having jurisdiction, and complying with requirements of the Supplier of the material
or equipment being installed.
5. Trades: Use of a term such as “carpentry” does not imply that certain construction
activities must be performed by accredited or unionized individuals of a
corresponding generic name, such as “carpenter”, unless otherwise indicated in
the Contract Documents or required by Laws or Regulations. Such terminology
also does not imply that specified requirements apply exclusively to trade
personnel of the corresponding generic name.
6. “Assigned specialists” and similar terms: Certain Sections of the Specifications
require that specific construction activities be performed by specialists recognized
as experts in those operations. Engage said specialists for those activities, and
their engagement is a requirement over which Contractor has no option. These
requirements do not conflict with enforcement of building codes and other Laws
and Regulations. Also, such requirements are not intended to interfere with local
trade union jurisdictional settlements and similar conventions. Such assignments
shall not relieve Contractor of responsibility for complying with the requirements of
the Contract Documents.

B. If any underground utility identified in the Contract Documents as requiring relocation is
not accurately indicated therein and if as a result it is not necessary to relocate such
utility or there is a reduction in the Work necessary to relocate such utility or drainage
facility, then the Owner shall be entitled to a change order reducing the total Contract
amount to reflect the value of the reduction in the Work directly attributable to such
correction in location and/or size.
C. Change in Allocation of Duties between the Contractor and the Utility Company
Hazen and Sawyer Project No.: 70088-001

MWDSLS – Project No.: SA061 Utility Relocation Requirements
Cottonwoods Connection Page 01 58 00-17
1. Change orders resulting from a reallocation of duties between the Contractor and
the Utility Company from that found in the Contract shall be governed the
following:
a. Change in Allocation of Duties from the Utility Company to the Contractor: If
the Contract Documents allocates to the Utility Company the responsibility to
perform design and construction for the relocation of a particular utility and
after the execution of the Agreement the Owner gives notice to the
Contractor that all or part of such Work is being reallocated to the
Contractor, then the scope of the Contractor’s duties for such utility shall be
expanded to include those duties specifically reallocated to the Contractor as
described in said notice. The Contractor shall be entitled to a change order
increasing the total Contract amount to reflect the Contractor’s additional
costs incurred directly attributable to such additional duties. If the change in
allocation of duties impacts the baseline schedule critical path an adjustment
in time may be included in the change order.
b. Change in Allocation of Duties from Contractor to the Utility Company: If the
Contract Documents allocates to the Contractor the responsibility to perform
construction for the relocation of a particular utility and after execution of the
Agreement the Owner gives notice to the Contractor that all or part of such
Work is being reallocated to the Utility Company, then the scope of the
Contractor’s duties with respect to such utility shall be reduced to exclude
those duties specifically reallocated to the Utility Company as described in
said notice. The Owner shall be entitled to issue a change order reducing the
total Contract amount to reflect the value of the reduction in the Work directly
attributable to such reduced duties. If the change in allocation of duties
impacts the baseline schedule critical path an adjustment in time may be
included in the change order.
D. Additional Restrictions on Change Orders
1. Whenever the Contractor claims entitlement to a change order in addition to all the
other requirements and limitations contained in the Contract Documents, the
Contractor shall bear the burden of proving that the utility relocation could not
reasonably have been avoided and of proving the amount of any costs and/or
delays claimed by the Contractor.
2. In cases where the Contractor is entitled to a change order, the change order shall
allow a price increase only for the incremental costs arising from the
circumstances giving rise to such change order.
3. In no event will the Contractor be awarded any increase in the total Contract
amount for any increased costs of coordinating with the affected utility or drainage
facility owner on account of any utility relocation for which a change order is
merited.

Cottonwoods Connection Page 01 58 00-18
4. In general, the parties anticipate that change orders for utility relocations will be
executed as the changes occur. However, the Owner and the Contractor may
agree to consolidate certain changes into a single change order. The Contractor’s
markups shall be deemed to include compensation for all costs associated with
any time differential between performance of the relocation work and the date of
issuance of the change order.
5. The Contractor shall not be entitled to a change order for increased costs of the
Work resulting from or for any extension of time for delays associated with any
temporary relocations of utilities implemented for the convenience of the
Contractor's own construction operations.
6. The provisions of this Specification section shall not apply to any increase or
reduction in costs to either the Contractor or Owner as a result of the following:
a. An Owner-directed change;
b. A necessary basic Project configuration change; or
c. Any other material change in basic configuration or in the other Contract
requirements.
7. Any increase or reduction in costs due to an Owner-directed change or necessary
basic Project configuration change involving utilities shall be accounted for in the
change order.
8. The Contractor will be entitled to the actual cost and time associated with
replacement of a broken, malfunctioning, or defective valve only if Owner or
Engineer orders the Contractor to make said replacement provided said valve(s)
were not planned for replacement as part of the utility relocations described in the
Contract.
E. Change Orders Only as Specified
1. Excluding the work identified as “excluded from scope” herein, the Contractor has
provided for all the Work described in this Specification and Contract Documents
in the total Contract amount and the Contractor has determined that it is feasible to
obtain all necessary relocations within the time deadlines of this Contract. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Contractor acknowledges and agrees to
the following:
a. Prior to execution of the Agreement, the Contractor analyzed the risks
involved and in calculating the total Contract amount including adjustments
which it deemed appropriate to account for the potential risks of additional
costs and delays relating to relocations, including the following:
1) Inaccuracies in the Contract which do not merit change orders
hereunder; and

Cottonwoods Connection Page 01 58 00-19
2) The possibility that Utility Companies may not have an incentive to
cooperate with the Contractor in meeting the Contractor’s schedule
and expediting the relocation process.
3.10 WORK BY OTHER CONTRACTORS AND AGENCIES
A. The Owner reserves the right to contract with others to perform other or additional work
on or near the site. The Contractor shall cooperate with such other contractors and
interfacing parties to the extent reasonably necessary for the performance by such other

not stain the concrete and shall leave the concrete with a paintable surface. Formulation of
the form release agent shall be such that it would minimize formation of "bug holes" in
cast-in-place concrete.
PART 3 – EXECUTION
3.01 FORM DESIGN
A. Forms and falsework shall be designed for total dead load, plus all construction live load
as outlined in ACI 347. Design and engineering of formwork and safety considerations
during construction shall be the responsibility of the Contractor.
B. Forms shall be of sufficient strength and rigidity to maintain their position and shape under
the loads and operations incident to placing and vibrating the concrete. The maximum
deflection of facing materials reflected in concrete surfaces exposed to view shall be 1/240
of the span between structural members.
C. All forms shall be designed for predetermined placing rates per hour, considering expected
air temperatures and setting rates.
3.02 CONSTRUCTION
A. The type, size, quality, and strength of all materials from which forms are made shall be
subject to the approval of the Engineer. No falsework or forms shall be used which are not
clean and suitable. Deformed, broken or defective falsework and forms shall be removed
from the work.
B. Forms shall be smooth and free from surface irregularities. Suitable and effective means
shall be provided on all forms for holding adjacent edges and ends of panels and sections
tightly together and in accurate alignment so as to prevent the formation of ridges, fins,
offsets, or similar surface defects in the finished concrete. Joints between the forms shall
be sealed to eliminate any irregularities. The arrangement of the facing material shall be
orderly and symmetrical, with the number of seams kept to a practical minimum.
C. Forms shall be true to line and grade and shall be sufficiently rigid to prevent displacement
and sagging between supports. Curved forms shall be used for curved and circular
structures. Straight panels joined at angles will not be acceptable for forming curved
structures. Forms shall be properly braced or tied together to maintain their position and
shape under a load of freshly placed concrete. Facing material shall be supported with
studs or other backing which shall prevent both visible deflection marks in the concrete
and deflections beyond the tolerances specified.
D. Forms shall be mortar tight to prevent the loss of water, cement and fines during placing
and vibrating of the concrete. Specifically, the bottom of wall forms that rest on concrete
footings or slabs shall be provided with a gasket to prevent loss of fines and paste during
placement and vibration of concrete. Such gasket may be a 1 to 1-1/2-inch diameter
polyethylene rod held in position to the underside of the wall form.
Hazen and Sawyer Project No.: 70088-001
10/27/2023
MWDSLS – Project No.: SA061 Concrete Formwork
Cottonwoods Connection Page 03 11 00-4
E. All vertical surfaces of concrete members shall be formed, and side forms shall be
provided for all footings, slab edges and grade beams, except where placement of the
concrete against the ground is called for on the Drawings. Not less than 1-inch of concrete
shall be added to the thickness of the concrete member as shown where concrete is
permitted to be placed against trimmed ground in lieu of forms. Such permission will be
granted only for members of comparatively limited height and where the character of the
ground is such that it can be trimmed to the required lines and will stand securely without
caving or sloughing until the concrete has been placed.
F. All forms shall be constructed in such a manner that they can be removed without
hammering or prying against the concrete. Wood forms shall be constructed for wall
openings to facilitate loosening and to counteract swelling of the forms.
G. Adequate cleanout holes shall be provided at the bottom of each lift of forms. Temporary
openings shall be provided at the base of column forms and wall forms and at other points
to facilitate cleaning and observation immediately before the concrete is deposited. The
size, number and location of such cleanouts shall be as acceptable to the Engineer.
H. Construction joints shall not be permitted at locations other than those shown or specified,
except as may be acceptable to the Engineer. When a second lift is placed on hardened
concrete, special precautions shall be taken in the way of the number, location and
tightening of ties at the top of the old lift and bottom of the new to prevent any
unsatisfactory effect whatsoever on the concrete. For flush surfaces at construction joints
exposed to view, the contact surface of the form sheathing over the hardened concrete in
the previous placement shall be lapped by not more than 1 inch. Forms shall be held
against hardened concrete to prevent offset or loss of mortar at construction joints and to
maintain a true surface.
I. The formwork shall be cambered to compensate for anticipated deflections in the formwork
due to the weight and pressure of the fresh concrete and due to construction loads. Set
forms and intermediate screed strips for slabs accurately to produce the designated
elevations and contours of the finished surface. Ensure that edge forms and screed strips
are sufficiently strong to support vibrating screeds or roller pipe screeds if the nature of the
finish specified requires the use of such equipment. When formwork is cambered, set
screeds to a like camber to maintain the proper concrete thickness.
J. Positive means of adjustment (wedges or jacks) for shores and struts shall be provided
and all settlement shall be taken up during concrete placing operation. Shores and struts
shall be securely braced against lateral deflections. Wedges shall be fastened firmly in
place after final adjustment of forms prior to concrete placement. Formwork shall be
anchored to shores or other supporting surfaces or members to prevent upward or lateral
movement of any part of the formwork system during concrete placement. If adequate
foundation for shores cannot be secured, trussed supports shall be provided.
K. Runways shall be provided for moving equipment with struts or legs. Runways shall be
supported directly on the formwork or structural member without resting on the reinforcing
steel.

3.03 TOLERANCES
A. Unless otherwise indicated in the Contract Documents, formwork shall be constructed so
that the concrete surfaces will conform to the tolerance limits listed in ACI 117.
B. Structural framing of reinforced concrete around elevators and stairways shall be
accurately plumbed and located within 1/4 in. tolerance from established dimensions.
C. The Contractor shall establish and maintain in an undisturbed condition and until final
completion and acceptance of the project, sufficient control points and benchmarks to be
used for reference purposes to check tolerances. Plumb and string lines shall be installed
before concrete placement and shall be maintained during placement. Such lines shall be
used by Contractor's personnel and by the Engineer and shall be in sufficient number and
properly installed. During concrete placement, the Contractor shall continually monitor
plumb and string line form positions and immediately correct deficiencies.
D. Regardless of the tolerances specified, no portion of the structure shall extend beyond the
legal boundary of the structure.
3.04 FORM ACCESSORIES
A. Suitable moldings shall be placed to bevel or round all exposed corners and edges of
beams, columns, walls, slabs, and equipment pads. Chamfers shall be 3/4 inch unless
otherwise noted.
B. Form ties shall be so constructed that the ends, or end fasteners, can be removed without
causing appreciable spalling at the faces of the concrete. After ends, or end fasteners of
form ties have been removed, the embedded portion of the ties shall terminate not less
than 2 inches from the formed face of the concrete that is exposed to water or enclosed
surfaces above the water surface, and not less than 1 inch from the formed face of all
other concrete. Holes left by the removal of form tie cones shall be reamed with suitable
toothed reamers to leave the surface of the holes clean and rough before being filled with
mortar as specified in Section 03 35 00 Concrete Finishes. No form-tying device or part
thereof, other than metal, shall be left embedded in the concrete. Ties shall not be
removed in such manner as to leave a hole extending through the interior of the concrete
member. The use of snap-ties which cause spalling of the concrete upon form stripping or
tie removal will not be permitted. No snap ties shall be broken off until the concrete is at
least three days old. If steel panel forms are used, rubber grommets shall be provided
where the ties pass through the form in order to prevent loss of cement paste.
3.05 APPLICATION FORM RELEASE AGENT
A. Forms for concrete surfaces that will not be subsequently waterproofed shall be coated
with a form release agent. Form release agent shall be applied on formwork in accordance
with manufacturer's recommendations.

3.06 INSERTS AND EMBEDDED ITEMS
A. Sleeves, pipe stubs, inserts, anchors, expansion joint material, waterstops, and other
embedded items shall be positioned accurately and supported against displacement prior
to concreting. Voids in sleeves, inserts, and anchor slots shall be filled temporarily with
readily removable material to prevent the entry of concrete into the voids.
3.07 FORM CLEANING AND REUSE
A. The inner faces of all forms shall be thoroughly cleaned prior to concreting. Forms may be
reused only if in good condition and only if acceptable to the Engineer. Light sanding
between uses will be required wherever necessary to obtain uniform surface texture.
Unused tie rod holes in forms shall be covered with metal caps or shall be filled by other
methods acceptable to the Engineer.
3.08 FORM REMOVAL AND SHORING
A. Forms shall not be disturbed until the concrete has attained sufficient strength. Sufficient
strength shall be demonstrated by structural analysis considering proposed loads, strength
of forming and shoring system, and concrete strength data. Shoring shall not be removed
until the supported member has acquired sufficient strength to support its weight and the
load upon it. Members subject to additional loads during construction shall be adequately
shored to sustain all resulting stresses. Forms shall be removed in such manner as not to
impair safety and serviceability of the structure. All concrete to be exposed by form
removal shall have sufficient strength not to be damaged thereby.
B. Provided the strength requirements specified above have been met and subject to the
Engineer's approval, forms may be removed at the following minimum times. The
Contractor shall assume full responsibility for the strength of all such components from
which forms are removed prior to the concrete attaining its full design compressive
strength. Shoring may be required at the option of the Engineer beyond these periods.

Cottonwoods Connection Page 03 11 00-7
D. An accurate record shall be maintained by the Contractor of the dates of concrete placings
and the exact location thereof and the dates of removal of forms. These records shall
always be available for inspection at the site, and two copies shall be furnished the
Engineer upon completion of the concrete work.
3.09 RESHORING
A. When reshoring is permitted or required the operations shall be planned and subjected to
approval by the Engineer.
B. Reshores shall be placed after stripping operations are complete but in no case later than
the end of the working day on which stripping occurs.
C. Reshoring for the purpose of early form removal shall be performed so that at no time will
large areas of new construction be required to support their own weight. While reshoring is
under way, no construction or live loads shall be permitted on the new construction.
Reshores shall be tightened to carry their required loads but they shall not be
overtightened so that the new construction is overstressed. Reshores shall remain in place
until the concrete has reached its specified 28-day strength, unless otherwise specified.
D. For floors supporting shores under newly placed concrete, the original supporting shores
shall remain in place or reshores shall be placed. The shoring or reshoring system shall
have a capacity sufficient to resist the anticipated loads and, in all cases, shall have a
capacity equal to at least one-half of the capacity of the shoring system above. Reshores
shall be located directly under a reshore position above unless other locations are
permitted.
E. In multi-story buildings, reshoring shall extend over a sufficient number of stories to
distribute the weight of newly placed concrete, forms, and construction live loads so the
design superimposed loads of the floors supporting shores are not exceeded.

test cylinders taken, and new tests performed as before. Any such additional trial batch
testing required shall be performed at no additional cost to the Owner. Adjustments to
the mix shall be considered refinements to the mix design and shall not be the basis for
extra compensation to the Contractor.
3.02 SHRINKAGE TEST
A. Concurrent with the trial batch requirements stated in Article 3.01, the testing laboratory
shall perform drying shrinkage tests for the trial batches as specified herein.
B. Fabricate, cure, dry, and measure specimens in accordance with ASTM C157 modified
as follows.
1. Remove specimens from molds at an age of 23 hours ± 1 hour after trial
batching.
2. Place specimens immediately in water at 70 oF ± 3 oF for at least 30 minutes.
3. Measure within 30 minutes thereafter to determine original length, then submerge
in saturated lime water at 73 oF ± 3 oF.
4. At age seven days, measure to determine expansion, expressed as a percentage
of original length. This length at age seven days shall be the base length for drying
shrinkage calculations (zero days’ drying age).
5. Store specimens immediately in a humidity-controlled room maintained at
73 oF ± 3 oF and 50 percent ± 4 percent relative humidity for the remainder of the
test.
6. Make and report separately measurements to determine shrinkage expressed as
base length percentage for 7, 14, 21, and 28 days of drying after 7 days of moist
curing.
C. Compute the drying shrinkage deformation for each specimen as the difference between
the base length (at zero days’ drying age) and the length after drying at each test
age. Compute the average drying shrinkage deformation for the specimens to the
nearest 0.0001 inch at each test age. If the drying shrinkage for any specimen departs
from the average test age for that test by more than 0.0004 inch, disregard the results
obtained from that specimen. Report results from the shrinkage test to the nearest
0.001 percent of shrinkage. Take compression test specimens in each case from the
same concrete used for preparing drying shrinkage specimens. These tests shall be
considered part of the normal compression tests for the project.

D. The maximum concrete shrinkage for specimens cast in the laboratory from the trial
batch, as measured at 21-day drying age or at 28-day drying age, shall be 0.036 or
0.042 percent, respectively. Use a mix design for construction that has first met the trial
batch shrinkage requirements.
E. If the trial batch specimens do not meet both the strength and shrinkage requirements,
revise the mix designs and/or materials and retest.
3.03 PRODUCTION OF CONCRETE
F. All concrete shall be machine mixed. Hand mixing of concrete will not be permitted. The
Contractor may supply concrete from a ready-mix concrete plant or from a site mixed
plant. In selecting the source for concrete production, the Contractor shall carefully
consider its capability for providing quality concrete at a rate commensurate with the
requirements of the placements so that well bonded, homogenous concrete, free of cold
joints, is assured.
G. Ready-Mixed Concrete
1. At the Contractor's option, ready-mixed concrete may be used meeting the
requirements for materials, batching, mixing, transporting, and placing as specified
herein and in accordance with ASTM C 94.
2. Truck mixers shall be equipped with electrically actuated counters by which the
number of revolutions of the drum or blades may be readily verified. The counter
shall be of the resettable, recording type, and shall be mounted in the driver's cab.
The counters shall be actuated at the time of starting mixers at mixing speeds.
3. Each batch of concrete shall be mixed in a truck mixer for not less than 100
revolutions of the drum or blades at the rate of rotation designated by the
manufacturer of equipment. Additional mixing, if any, shall be at the speed
designated by the manufacturer of the equipment as agitating speed. All materials
including mixing water shall be in the mixer drum before actuating the revolution
counter for determining the number of revolutions of mixing.
4. Truck mixers and their operation shall be such that the concrete throughout the
mixed batch, as discharged, is within acceptable limits of uniformity with respect to
consistency, mix and grading. If slump tests taken at approximately the 1/4 and 3/4
points of the load during discharge give slumps differing by more than one inch
when the specified slump is 3 inches or less, or if they differ by more than 2 inches
when the specified slump is more than 3 inches, the mixer shall not be used on the
work unless the causing condition is corrected and satisfactory performance is
verified by additional slump tests. All mechanical details of the mixer, such as
water measuring and discharge apparatus, condition of the blades, speed of
rotation, general mechanical condition of the unit and clearance of the drum, shall
be checked before a further attempt to use the unit will be permitted.

1. Scales for weighing concrete ingredients shall be accurate when in use within ±0.4
percent of their total capacities. Standard test weights shall be available to permit
checking scale accuracy.
2. Operation of batching equipment shall be such that the concrete ingredients are
consistently measured within the following tolerances:
a. Cement, fly ash, or slag cement ± 1 percent
b. Water ± 1 percent
c. Aggregates ± 2 percent
d. Admixtures ± 3 percent
3. Each batch shall be so charged into the mixer that some water will enter in
advance of the cement and aggregates. Water shall continue for a period which
may extend to the end of the first 25 percent of the specified mixing time. Controls
shall be provided to prevent batched ingredients from entering the mixer before the
previous batch has been completely discharged.
4. The concrete shall be mixed in a batch mixer capable of thoroughly combining the
aggregates, cement, and water into a uniform mass within the specified mixing
time, and of discharging the concrete without harmful segregation. The mixer shall
bear a manufacturer's rating plate indicating the rate capacity and the
recommended revolutions per minute and shall be operated in accordance
therewith.
5. Mixers with a rated capacity of one cubic yard or larger shall conform to the
requirements of the Plant Mixer Manufacturers' Division of the Concrete Plant
Manufacturers' Bureau.
6. Except as provided below, batches of one cubic yard or less shall be mixed for not
less than one minute. The mixing time shall be increased 15 seconds for each
cubic yard or fraction thereof of additional capacity.
7. Shorter mixing time may be permitted provided performance tests made in
accordance with of ASTM C 94 indicate that the time is sufficient to produce
uniform concrete.
8. Controls shall be provided to ensure that the batch cannot be discharged until the
required mixing time has elapsed. At least three-quarters of the required mixing
time shall take place after the last of the mixing water has been added.

10. Air-entraining admixtures and other chemical admixtures shall be charged into the
mixer as solutions and shall be measured by means of an approved mechanical
dispensing device. The liquid shall be considered a part of the mixing water.
Admixtures that cannot be added in solution may be weighed or may be measured
by volume if recommended by the manufacturer.
11. If two or more admixtures are used in the concrete, they shall be added separately
to avoid possible interaction that might interfere with the efficiency of either
admixture or adversely affect the concrete.
12. Addition of retarding admixtures shall be completed within one minute after
addition of water to the cement has been completed, or prior to the beginning of
the last three-quarters of the required mixing, whichever occurs first. Retarding
admixtures shall not be used unless approved by the Engineer.
13. Concrete shall be mixed only in quantities for immediate use and within the time
and mixing requirements of ASTM C 94.
3.04 CONCRETE PLACEMENT
A. No concrete shall be placed prior to approval of the concrete mix design. Concrete
placement shall conform to the recommendations of ACI 304.
B. Prior to concrete placement, all reinforcement shall be securely and properly fastened in
its correct position. Formwork shall be clean, oiled and form ties at construction joints
shall be retightened. All bucks, sleeves, castings, hangers, pipe, conduits, bolts,
anchors, wire, and any other fixtures required to be embedded therein shall be in place.
Forms for openings to be left in the concrete shall be in place and anchored by the
Contractor. All loose debris in bottoms of forms or in keyways shall be removed and all
debris, water, snow, ice, and foreign matter shall be removed from the space to be
occupied by the concrete. The Contractor shall notify the Engineer in advance of
placement, allowing sufficient time for a concurrent inspection and for any corrective
measures required.
C. On horizontal joints where concrete is to be placed on hardened concrete, flowing
concrete containing a high range water reducing admixture or cement grout shall be
placed with a slump not less than 8 inches for the initial placement at the base of the
wall. Concrete or cement grout shall meet all strength and service requirements
specified herein for applicable class of concrete. This concrete shall be worked well into
the irregularities of the hard surface.
D. All concrete shall be placed during the daylight hours except with the consent of the
Engineer. If special permission is obtained to carry on work during the night, adequate
lighting must be provided.

MWDSLS – Project No.: SA061 Cast in Place Concrete
Cottonwoods Connection Page 03 30 00-18
E. When concrete arrives at the project with slump below that suitable for placing, as
indicated by the Specifications, water may be added to bring the concrete within the
specified slump range provided the design water-cementitious materials ratio is not
exceeded. The water shall be incorporated by additional mixing equal to at least half of
the total mixing required. Water may be added only to full trucks. On-site tempering shall
not relieve the Contractor from furnishing a concrete mix meeting all specified
requirements.
F. Concrete shall be conveyed as rapidly as practical to the point of deposit by methods
which prevent the separation or loss of the ingredients. The concrete shall be deposited
so that additional handling will be unnecessary. Discharge of the concrete to its point of
deposit shall be completed within 90 minutes after the addition of the cement to the
aggregates unless workability-retaining admixtures are included and approved by the
Engineer. In hot weather, or under conditions contributing to quick stiffening of the
concrete, the time between the introduction of the cement to the aggregates and
discharge shall not exceed the requirements stated in Article 3.10 of this Section.
G. Where concrete is conveyed to position by chutes, a continuous flow in the chute shall
be maintained. The angle and discharge arrangement of the chute shall be such to
prevent segregation of the concrete ingredients. The delivery end of the chute shall be
as close as possible to the point of deposit and in no case shall the free pour from the
delivery end of the chute exceed five feet, unless approved otherwise.
H. Special care must be exercised to prevent splashing of forms or reinforcement with
concrete, and any such splashes or accumulations of hardened or partially hardened
concrete on the forms or reinforcement above the general level of the concrete already
in place must be removed before the work proceeds.
I. Placing of concrete shall be regulated so the pressure caused by the wet concrete shall
not exceed that used in the design of the forms.
J. All concrete for walls shall be placed through openings in the form spaced at frequent
intervals or through tremies (heavy duct canvas, rubber, etc.), equipped with suitable
hopper heads. Tremies shall be of variable lengths so the free fall shall not exceed five
(5) feet, and enough tremies shall be placed in the form to ensure the concrete remains
level.
K. When placing concrete which will be exposed, sufficient illumination shall be provided in
the interior of the forms so the concrete, at places of deposit, is visible from deck and
runways.
L. Concrete shall be placed to thoroughly embed all reinforcement, inserts, and fixtures.
M. When forms are removed, surfaces shall be even and dense, free from aggregate
pockets or honeycomb. Concrete shall be consolidated using mechanical vibration,
supplemented by forking and spading by hand in the corners and angle of forms and
Hazen and Sawyer Project No.: 70088-001
10/27/2023
MWDSLS – Project No.: SA061 Cast in Place Concrete
Cottonwoods Connection Page 03 30 00-19
along form surfaces while the concrete is plastic under the vibratory action.
Consolidation shall conform to ACI 309.
N. Mechanical vibration shall be applied directly to the concrete, unless otherwise approved
by the Engineer. The bottom of vibrators used on floor slabs must not be permitted to
ride the form supporting the slab. Vibration shall be applied at the point of deposit and in
freshly placed concrete by a vertical penetration of the vibrator. Vibrators shall not be
used to move concrete laterally within the forms.
O. The intensity of vibration shall be sufficient to cause settlement of the concrete into place
and to produce monolithic joining with the preceding layer. Vibration shall be of sufficient
duration to accomplish thorough compaction and complete embedment of reinforcement
and fixtures with a vibrator transmitting not less than 7,500 impulses per minute. Since
the duration of vibration per square foot of surface is dependent on the frequency
(impulses per minute), size of vibrator, and slump of concrete, the length of time must
therefore be determined in the field. Vibration shall not be continued in any one location
to the extent that pools of grout are formed.
P. Care shall be taken to prevent cold joints when placing concrete in any portion of the
work. The concrete placing rate shall ensure that each layer is placed while the previous
layer is soft or plastic, so the two layers can be made monolithic by penetration of the
vibrators. Maximum thickness of concrete layers shall be 18 inches. The surface of the
concrete shall be level whenever a run of concrete is stopped.
Q. To prevent featheredges, construction joints located at the tops of horizontal lifts near
sloping exposed concrete surfaces shall be inclined near the exposed surface, so the
angle between such inclined surface and the exposed concrete surface will be not less
than 50°.
R. In placing unformed concrete on slopes, the concrete shall be placed ahead of a non-
vibrated slip-form screed extending approximately 2-1/2 feet back from its leading edge.
The method of placement shall provide a uniform finished surface with the deviation from
the straight line less than 1/8 inch in any concrete placement. Concrete ahead of the
slip-form screed shall be consolidated by internal vibrators to ensure complete filling
under the slip-form. Prior to placement of concrete on sloped walls or slabs, the
Contractor shall submit a plan specifically detailing methods and sequence of
placements, proposed concrete screed equipment, location of construction joints and
water stops, and/or any proposed deviations from the stated requirements to the
Engineer for review and approval.
S. Concrete shall not be placed during rains sufficiently heavy or prolonged to prevent
washing of mortar from coarse aggregate on the forward slopes of the placement. Once
placement of concrete has commenced in a block, placement shall not be interrupted by
diverting the placing equipment to other uses.

3.05 PLACING FLOOR SLABS ON GROUND
A. The subgrade for slabs on ground shall be well drained and of adequate and uniform
loadbearing nature. The in-place density of the subgrade soils shall be at least the
minimum required by the specifications. No foundation, slab, or pavement concrete shall
be placed until the depth and character of the foundation soils have been inspected and
approved by the materials testing consultant.
B. The subgrade shall be free of frost before concrete placing begins. If the temperature
inside a building where concrete is to be placed is below freezing, the temperature shall
be raised and maintained above 50° long enough to remove all frost from the subgrade.
C. The subgrade shall be moist at the time of concreting. If necessary, the subgrade shall
be dampened with water in advance of concreting, but no free water shall remain
standing on the subgrade nor any muddy or soft spots when the concrete is placed.
D. Thirty-pound felt-paper shall be provided between edges of slabs-on-ground and vertical
and horizontal concrete surfaces, unless otherwise indicated on the Drawings.
E. Contraction joints shall be provided in slabs-on-ground at locations indicated on the
Drawings. Contraction joints shall be installed as per Section 03 15 16 Joints in
Concrete.
F. Floor slabs shall be screeded level or pitched to drain as indicated on the Drawings.
Finishes shall conform with requirements of Section 03 35 00 Concrete Finishes.
Interior floor slabs shall be placed with non-air-entrained concrete (Class A3) if a steel
troweled or hardened finish is required.
3.06 PLACING CONCRETE UNDER PRESSURE
A. Where concrete is conveyed and placed by mechanically applied pressure, the
equipment shall have the capacity for the operation. The operation of the pump shall
produce a continuous stream of concrete without air pockets. To obtain the least line
resistance, the layout of the pipeline system shall contain minimum bends with no
change in pipe size. If two sizes of pipe must be used, the smaller diameter should be
used at the pump end and the larger at the discharge end. When pumping is completed,
the concrete remaining in the pipelines shall be ejected in such a manner that there will
be no contamination of the concrete or separation of the ingredients.
B. Priming of the concrete pumping equipment shall be with cement grout only. Use of
specialty mix pump primers or pumping aids will not be allowed.
C. No aluminum parts shall be in contact with the concrete during the placing of concrete
under pressure.

Cottonwoods Connection Page 03 30 00-21
D. Prior to placing concrete under pressure, the Contractor shall submit the concrete mix
design together with test results from a material’s testing consultant proving the
proposed mix meets all requirements. In addition, an actual pumping test under field
conditions is required prior to acceptance of the mix. This test requires a duplication of
anticipated site conditions from beginning to end. The batching and truck mixing shall be
the same as will be used during construction, and the pipe and pipe layouts will reflect
the maximum height and distance contemplated. All submissions shall be subject to
approval by the Engineer.
E. If the pumped concrete does not produce satisfactory end results, the Contractor shall
discontinue the pumping operation and proceed with the placing of concrete using
conventional methods.
F. The pumping equipment must have two cylinders and be designed to operate with one
cylinder only in case the other one is not functioning. In lieu of this requirement, the
Contractor may have a standby pump on the site during pumping.
G. The minimum diameter of the hose (conduits) shall be four inches.
H. Pumping equipment and hoses (conduits) that are not functioning properly shall be
replaced.
I. Concrete samples for quality control in accordance with Article 3.11 will be taken at the
placement (discharge) end of the line.
3.07 ORDER OF PLACING CONCRETE
A. To minimize the effects of shrinkage, the concrete shall be placed in units as bounded
by construction joints shown on the Drawings and maximum lengths as indicated on
Drawings. Where required on the Drawings and wherever else practical, the placing of
such units shall be done in a strip pattern in accordance with ACI 302.1. A minimum of
72 hours shall pass prior to placing concrete directly adjacent to previously placed
concrete.
3.08 CONCRETE WORK IN COLD WEATHER
A. Cold weather concreting procedures shall conform to the requirements of ACI 306.1.
B. The Engineer may prohibit the placing of concrete at any time when air temperature is
40°F. or lower. If concrete work is permitted, the concrete shall have a minimum
temperature, as placed, of 55°F. for placements less than 12" thick, 50°F. for
placements 12" to 36" thick, and 45°F. for placements greater than 36" thick. The
temperature of the concrete as placed shall not exceed these minimum values by more
than 20°F, unless otherwise approved by the Engineer.
C. All aggregate and water shall be preheated. Precautions shall be taken to avoid the
possibility of flash set when aggregate or water are heated to a temperature greater than
100°F. to meet concrete temperature requirements. The addition of admixtures to the
Hazen and Sawyer Project No.: 70088-001
10/27/2023
MWDSLS – Project No.: SA061 Cast in Place Concrete
Cottonwoods Connection Page 03 30 00-22
concrete to prevent freezing is not permitted. All reinforcement, forms, and concrete
accessories shall be defrosted by an approved method. No concrete shall be placed on
frozen ground.
3.09 CONCRETE WORK IN HOT WEATHER
A. Hot weather concreting procedures shall conform to the requirements of ACI 305.1.
B. When air temperatures exceed 85°F., or when extremely dry or high wind conditions
exist even at lower temperatures, the Contractor and his concrete supplier shall exercise
special and precautionary measures in preparing, delivering, placing, finishing, curing,
and protecting the concrete mix. The Contractor shall consult with the Engineer
regarding such measures prior to each day's placing operation, and the Engineer
reserves the right to modify the proposed measures consistent with the requirements
herein. All necessary materials and equipment shall be in place prior to each placing
operation.
C. Preparatory work at the job site shall include thorough wetting of all forms, reinforcing
steel and, in the case of slab pours on ground or subgrade, spraying the ground surface
on the preceding evening and again just prior to placing. No standing puddles of water
shall be permitted in those areas which are to receive the concrete.
D. The temperature of the concrete mix when placed shall not exceed 95°F.
E. Temperature of mixing water and aggregates shall be carefully controlled and monitored
at the supplier's plant, with haul distance to the job site being considered. Stockpiled
aggregates shall be shaded from the sun and sprinkled intermittently with water. If ice is
used in the mixing water for cooling purposes, the ice must be entirely melted prior to
addition of the water to the dry mix.
F. Delivery schedules shall be carefully considered in advance to ensure concrete is placed
as soon as practical after mixing. For hot weather concrete work (air temperature greater
than 85°F), discharge of the concrete to its point of deposit shall be completed within
60 minutes from the time the concrete is batched, unless workability-retaining
admixtures are included and approved by the Engineer.
G. The Contractor shall arrange for an ample work force to be on hand to accomplish
transporting, vibrating, finishing, and covering of the fresh concrete as rapidly as
possible.

for each 5,000 square feet of surface area for slabs or walls, whichever is greater.
3. Each sampling shall consist of at least five (5) 6x12 cylinders or (8) 4x8 cylinders.
Each cylinder shall be identified by a tag, which shall be hooked or wired to the
side of the container. The materials testing consultant will fill out the required
information on the tag, and the Contractor shall satisfy himself that such
information shown is correct.
4. The Contractor shall be required to furnish labor to the Owner for assisting in
preparing test cylinders. The Contractor shall provide approved curing boxes for
storage of cylinders on site. The insulated curing box shall be of sufficient size and
strength to contain all the cylinders made in any four consecutive working days
and to protect the specimens from falling over, being jarred, or otherwise disturbed
during the period of initial curing. The box shall be erected, furnished, and
maintained by the Contractor. Such box shall be equipped to provide the moisture
and to regulate the temperature necessary to maintain the proper curing conditions
required by ASTM C 31. The curing box shall be placed in an area free from
vibration such as pile driving and traffic of all kinds and such that all cylinders are
shielded from direct sunlight and/or radiant heating sources. No concrete requiring
testing shall be delivered to the site until such storage curing box has been
provided. Cylinders shall remain undisturbed in the curing box until ready for
delivery to the testing laboratory, but not less than sixteen hours.
5. The Contractor shall be responsible for maintaining the temperatures of the curing
box during the initial curing of cylinders with the temperature preserved between
60°F and 80°F as measured by a maximum-minimum thermometer. The
Contractor shall maintain a written record of curing box temperatures for each day
the curing box contains cylinders. Temperature shall be recorded a minimum of

Paragraph H shall be performed.
5. When a ratio between 7-day and 28-day strengths has been established by these
tests, the 7-day strengths shall subsequently be taken as a preliminary indication
of the 28-day strengths. Should the 7-day test strength from any sampling be more
than 10% below the established minimum strength, the Contractor shall:
a. Immediately provide additional periods of curing in the affected area from
which the deficient test cylinders were taken.
b. Maintain or add temporary structural support as required.
c. Correct the mix for the next concrete placement operation, if required to
remedy the situation.
6. All concrete which fails to meet the ACI requirements, and these specifications is
subject to removal and replacement at no additional cost to the Owner.

PART 3 – EXECUTION
3.01 FINISHES ON FORMED CONCRETE SURFACES
A. After removal of forms, the finishes described below shall be applied in accordance with
Article 3.06 - Concrete Finish Schedule. Unless the finish schedule specifies otherwise,
all surfaces shall receive at least a Type I finish. See Article 3.05 for surfaces to receive
paint or protective coatings. The Engineer shall be the sole judge of acceptability of all
concrete finish work.
1. Type I - Rough: All fins, burrs, offsets, marks, and all other projections left by the
forms shall be removed. Projections, depressions, etc. below finished grade
required to be removed will only be those greater than ¼-inch. All holes left by
removal of ends of ties, and all other holes, depressions, bug holes, air/blow holes
or voids shall be filled solid with cement grout after first being thoroughly wetted
and then struck off flush. The only holes below grade to be filled will be tie holes
and any other holes larger than ¼-inch in any dimension. Honeycombs shall be
chipped back to solid concrete and repaired as directed by the Engineer. All holes
shall be filled with tools, such as sponge floats and trowels, that will permit packing
the hole solidly with cement grout. Cement grout shall consist of one-part cement
to three parts sand, epoxy bonding agent (for tie holes only) and the amount of
mixing water shall be as little as consistent with the requirements of handling and
placing. Color of cement grout shall match the adjacent wall surface.
2. Type II - Grout Cleaned: Where this finish is required, it shall be applied after
completion of Type I finish. After the concrete has been pre-dampened over an
extended amount of time to reach the condition of saturated surface dry (SSD), a
slurry consisting of one part cement (including an appropriate quantity of white
cement to produce a color matching the surrounding concrete) and 1-1/2 parts
sand passing the No. 16 sieve, by damp loose volume, shall be spread over the
surface with clean burlap pads or sponge rubber floats. Mix proportions shall be
submitted to the Engineer after a sample of the work is established and accepted.
Any surplus shall be removed by scraping and then rubbing with clean burlap.
Hazen and Sawyer Project No.: 70088-001
10/27/2023
MWDSLS – Project No.: SA061 Concrete Finishes
Cottonwoods Connection Page 03 35 00-3
3. Type III - Smooth Rubbed: Where this finish is required, it shall be applied after the
completion of the Type II finish. No rubbing shall be done before the concrete is
thoroughly hardened and the mortar used for patching is firmly set. A smooth,
uniform surface shall be obtained by wetting the surface and rubbing with a
carborundum stone to eliminate irregularities. Unless the nature of the irregularities
requires it, the general surface of the concrete shall not be cut into. Corners and
edges shall be slightly rounded using a carborundum stone. Brush finishing or
painting with grout or neat cement will not be permitted. A 100 square foot
example shall be established at the beginning of the project to establish
acceptability.
3.02 SLAB AND FLOOR FINISHES
A. The finishes described below shall be applied to floors, slabs, flow channels and top of
walls in accordance with Article 3.05 - Concrete Finish Schedule. Do not apply water (i.e.
sprinkle) to any surface of concrete when finishing slabs. The Engineer shall be the sole
judge of acceptability of all such finish work.
1. Type "A" - Screeded: This finish shall be obtained by placing screeds at frequent
intervals and striking off to the surface elevation required. When a Type "F" finish
is subsequently to be applied, the surface of the screeded concrete shall be
roughened with a concrete rake to 1/2” minimum deep grooves prior to final set.
2. Type "B" - Wood or Magnesium Floated: This finish shall be obtained after
completion of a Type "A" finish by working a previously screeded surface with a
wood or magnesium float or until the desired texture is reached. Floating shall
begin when the water sheen has disappeared and when the concrete has
sufficiently hardened so that a person's foot leaves only a slight imprint. If wet
spots occur, water shall be removed with a squeegee. Care shall be taken to
prevent the formation of laitance and excess water on the finished surface. All
edges shall be edged with an 1/8-inch tool as directed by the Engineer (wood,
aluminum or magnesium is preferred, steel is acceptable). The finished surface
shall be true, even, and free from blemishes and any other irregularities.
3. Type "D" - Steel Troweled: This finish shall be obtained after completion of a Type
"B" finish. When the concrete has hardened sufficiently to prevent excess fine
material from working to the surface, the surface shall be compacted and
smoothed with not less than two thorough and complete steel troweling operations.
In areas which are to receive a floor covering such as tile, resilient flooring, or
carpeting, the applicable Specification Sections and Contract Drawings shall be
reviewed for the required finishes and degree of flatness. In areas that are
intermittently wet such as pump rooms, only one troweling operation is required to
provide some trowel marks for slip resistance. All edges shall be edged with an
1/8-inch tool as directed by the Engineer (wood, aluminum or magnesium is
preferred, steel is acceptable). The finish shall be brought to a smooth, dense
surface, free from defects and blemishes.

10/27/2023
MWDSLS – Project No.: SA061 Concrete Finishes
Cottonwoods Connection Page 03 35 00-4
4. Type "E" - Broom or Belt: This finish shall provide the surface with a transverse
scored texture by drawing a broom or burlap belt across the surface immediately
after completion of a Type "B" finish. All edges shall be edged with an 1/8-inch tool
as directed by the Engineer (wood, aluminum or magnesium is preferred, steel is
acceptable).
5. Type “G” Hardened Finish: This finish shall be applied after completion of a Type
“B” or Type “C” finish and prior to application of a Type “D” finish. Hardeners shall
be applied in strict accordance with the manufacturer’s requirements. Hardeners
shall be applied using a mechanical spreader. The hardener shall be applied in
two shakes with the first shake comprising 2/3 of the total amount. Type “D” finish
shall be applied following completion of application of the hardener. Non-oxidizing,
heavy-duty metallic floor hardener shall be applied at the loading docks and where
specifically required on the Contract Drawings or specified herein at the rate of 1.5
pounds/ft.2.
3.03 CONCRETE SEALERS
A. Concrete sealers shall be applied where specifically required on the Contract Drawings
or specified herein. Concrete sealers and densifiers shall not be used as concrete curing
compounds. Curing compounds, when allowed, shall be in accordance with Section 03
39 00 – Concrete Curing.
B. Sealers shall be applied after installation of all equipment, piping, etc. and after
completion of any other related construction activities. Application of sealers shall be in
strict accordance with manufacturer’s requirements.
C. Sealers shall be applied to all floor slabs not painted and not intended to be immersed.
D. Floor slabs subjected to vehicular traffic shall be sealed with the concrete liquid densifier
and sealer.
E. All other floor slabs to receive sealer shall be sealed with concrete floor sealer.
3.04 FINISHES ON EQUIPMENT PADS
A. Formed surfaces of equipment pads shall receive a Type III finish.
B. Top surfaces of equipment pads, except those surfaces subsequently required to
receive grout and support equipment bases, shall receive a Type "D" finish, unless
otherwise noted. Surfaces which will later receive grout shall, before the concrete takes
its final set, be made rough by removing the sand and cement that accumulates on the
top to the extent that the aggregate will be exposed with irregular indentations in the
surface up to 1/2 inch deep.

MWDSLS – Project No.: SA061 Stainless Steel
Cottonwoods Connection Page 05 13 00-4
C. Tables 2, 3 and 4 show numbered finishes and conditions for sheet, bar and plate. While
there are no specific designations for polished finishes on bar or plate, the sheet finish
designations are used to describe the desired effect. This also applies to finishes on
ornamental tubing.
D. There are three standard finishes for strip, which are broadly described by the finishing
operations employed:
1. No. 1 Strip Finish
2. No. 1 strip finish is approximately the same as No. 2D Sheet Finish. It varies in
appearance from dull gray matte to a fairly reflective surface, depending largely on
alloy composition and amount of cold reduction.
3. No. 2 Strip Finish is approximately the same as a No. 2B sheet finish. It is
smoother, more reflective than No. 1, and likewise varies with alloy composition.
4. Bright annealed finish is a highly reflective finish that is retained by final annealing
in a controlled atmosphere furnace.

No. 1
A rough dull surface which results from hot
rolling to the specified thickness followed
by annealing and descaling.
No. 3
An intermediate polish surface obtained by
finishing with a 100 grit abrasive.
Generally used where a semi-finished
polished surface is required. A No. 3 finish
usually receives additional polishing during
fabrication
No. 2D
A dull finish which results from cold rolling
followed by annealing and descaling, and
may perhaps get a final light roll pass
through unpolished rolls. A 2D finish is
used where appearance is of no concern.
No. 4
A polished surface obtained by finishing
with a 120-150 mesh abrasive, following
initial grinding with coarser abrasives. This
is a general purpose bright finish with a
visible "grain" which prevents mirror
reflection.
No. 2B
A bright cold-rolled finish resulting in the
same manner as No. 2D finish, except that
the annealed and descaled sheet receives
a final light roll pass through polished rolls.
This is the general purpose cold-rolled
finish that can be used as is, or as a
preliminary step to polishing.
No. 6
A dull satin finish having lower reflectivity
than No. 4 finish. It is produced by
Tampico brushing the No. 4 finish in a
medium of abrasive and oil. It is used for
architectural applications and
ornamentation where a high luster is
undesirable, and to contrast with brighter
finishes.
No. 7
A high reflective finish that is obtained by
buffing finely ground surfaces but not to
the extent of completely removing the
"grit" lines. It is used chiefly for
architectural and ornamental purposes.
No. 8
The most reflective surface, which is
obtained by polishing with successively
finer abrasives and buffing extensively
until all grit lines from preliminary grinding
operations are removed. It is used for
applications such as mirrors and
reflectors.

C. Select weld rods that provide weld filler metal having corrosion resistant properties as
nearly identical or better than the base metal to insure preservation of the corrosion-
resistant properties. Provide heat treatment at welds where testing of weld procedure
indicates it is required to restore the corrosion resistance.
D. Thermal conductivity of stainless steel is about half that of other steels; and the following
methods may be used to accommodate this situation:
1. Use lower weld current setting.
2. Use skip-weld techniques to minimize heat concentration.
3. Use back-up chill bars or other cooling techniques to dissipate heat.
E. Edges of the stainless steel to be welded shall be cleaned of contaminants.
3.03 FASTENERS
A. Stainless steel fasteners shall be used for joining stainless steel work.
B. Stainless steel fasteners shall be made of alloys that are equal to or more corrosion
resistant than the materials they join.

A. All stainless steel surfaces shall be precleaned, descaled, passivated and inspected
before, during and after fabrication in accordance with the applicable sections of ASTM
A380 and as detailed in the procedures to be submitted to the Engineer for approval
prior to start of work. Chemical passivation in accordance with ASTM A967 is required
for all stainless steel in contact with process water. Degreasing and passivation of
stainless steel articles shall be conducted as the last step after fabrication.
B. Measures to protect cleaned surfaces shall be taken as soon as final cleaning is
completed and shall be maintained during all subsequent handling, storage and
shipping.

coated up to 2500 square feet of pipe. An additional adhesion test shall be
conducted on every increment up to 15 00 square feet of pipe coated in
excess of the first 2500 square feet of pipe. (i.e., if one workday of
production is 3000 square feet of pipe, three adhesion tests would be
conducted on the pipe lot.) Adhesion testing shall be conducted on not less
than 25 percent of each pipe produced within a lot.
c. A pipe lot is defined as the quantity of pipe that is coated by a single crew
within a work shift, but not to exceed 10 hours.

pipe within the rejected pipe lot will then be individually tested and rejected
Hazen and Sawyer Project No.: 70088-001
1/3/2024
MWDSLS Project No.: SA061 Pipeline Coatings and Linings
Cottonwoods Connection Welded Steel Pipe Preselection 09 90 10-31
on a pipe-by-pipe basis in conformance with the test procedures and criteria
specific for the coating type.
b. If more than 25% of the pipes within a lot fail, then the entire lot shall be
rejected.
c. All rejected pipe shall have all coating removed from the full length pipe and
the pipe abrasive blasted and recoated.
3. Tape Coating Adhesion Testing:
a. Inner tape coating shall have an adhesion to steel of 20 pounds per inch
width or 15 pounds per inch width for ductile iron, minimum, when tape is
pulled in a continuous manner at an angle of 180 degrees to the pipe
surface.
b. Tape adhesion testing shall be conducted prior to application of the cement
mortar overcoat. Pipe that has been mortar coated prior to adhesion testing
shall have the mortar coating removed by the CONTRACTOR as directed by
the Engineer and of sufficient dimensional area to permit the adhesion test to
be conducted.
c. Adhesion tests shall be conducted at temperatures above 60 degrees and
less than 75 degrees.
d. Pulling tension shall be continuous, without stopping, and monitored
throughout the length of the pull, which shall be not less than 12 -inches in
length.
e. Adhesion test shall be prepared by making two parallel cuts through the
coating, 1 -inch apart, of sufficient length for the test pull. Peel the coating
back at one end and attach the tension scale to the coating with a suitable
clamp. Mark the coating at one inch increments from 0 to 12-inches.
f. The pull tension shall be recorded for each inch of pull. The two highest and
two lowest readings shall be discarded and the remaining values averaged.
Pull speed shall be not less than 5 seconds per inch or greater than 10
seconds per inch. If elongation of the tape backing occurs, pull speeds may
exceed 10 seconds per inch provided the minimum adhesion rating can still
be achieved.
g. Failure shall be by cohesive failure of the adhesive only. Delamination
failure, defined as separation of the adhesive from the backing material, will
result in rejection of the tape lot. Intermittent skip failures will be counted as
zero pounds of adhesion and included in the calculations for average coating
adhesion. Adhesive failure, defined as separation of the adhesive from the
metal substrate, will be rejected.
h. Pipe that fails the test by delamination will be retested on two other pipes
within the same lot of coated pipe. Failure of any two pipes within the lot will
result in rejection of all pipes coated with the rejected tape lot.

1/3/2024
MWDSLS Project No.: SA061 Pipeline Coatings and Linings
Cottonwoods Connection Welded Steel Pipe Preselection 09 90 10-32
4. Polyurethane Adhesion Testing:
a. Polyurethane coatings or linings shall have an adhesion to steel of 2,000
pounds per square inch, minimum. One pull test will be required. If the test
shows adhesive or cohesive failure values less than 2,000 psi, then two
additional tests shall be taken within 4 inches of the failing pull test. If the
average of the three tests is less than 2,000 psi, or any test is below 1500
psi, then the adhesion test shall be deemed a failed test and the pipe will be
rejected. If the average is above 2,000 psi and no single pull is below 1500
psi, then the test will be deemed a passing test. If a test fails, then all pipe
segments within the lot shall be tested using three adhesion pulls per pipe
segment within 4 inches of each other. If the average of three tests is less
than 2,000 psi, or a single pull is less than 1500 psi, then the pipe segment
will be rejected. If more than 25% of the segments within a lot fail, then the
entire lot shall be rejected.
D. Polyurethane coating adhesion to steel substrates shall be tested using pneumatic pull
off equipment, such as Delfesko Positest, in accordance with ASTM D4541 and AWWA
C222, except as modified in this section. All adhesion tests shall be performed at an
applied load rate of 100 psi per second, plus or minus 10 psi. Automatic pull rate
adhesion test equipment shall be used.
1. Adhesion tests shall utilize 20 mm diameter dollies.
2. When three tests are required on a single pipe, all three tests shall be conducted
by the same person, test equipment, and test procedure.
3. All dollies shall be scored to metal substrate using manual methods and tools,
normal to the pipe surface, and in a manner that does not stress or overheat the
coating.
4. Adhesion testing shall be performed at temperatures between 55- and 100-
degrees F. Tests may be performed at temperatures up to 115-degrees F or as
low as 45 degrees if testing can demonstrate no statistically detectable affect in
the test results and subject to Engineer approval.
E. Adhesion testing records shall include pipe identification, surface tested (interior or
exterior), surface temperature, coating thickness, tensile force applied, mode of failure,
and percentage of substrate failure relative to dolly surface. Records of all adhesion
tests shall be maintained in an electronic spreadsheet that includes pipe identification,
pipe coating date, adhesion test date, surface tested (interior or exterior), surface
temperature at time of test, coating thickness, tensile force applied, applied load rate per
second, mode of failure, and percentages of failure types present relative to dolly
surface area.
1. Polyurethane coatings shall be scored around the dolly prior to conducting the
adhesion test.
2. Failure shall be by adhesive and cohesive failure only. Adhesive failure is defined
as separation of the coating from the steel substrate. Cohesive failure is defined as
failure within the coating, resulting in coating remaining both on the steel substrate
and dolly.

1/3/2024
MWDSLS Project No.: SA061 Pipeline Coatings and Linings
Cottonwoods Connection Welded Steel Pipe Preselection 09 90 10-33
3. Partial substrate and glue failures will be retested if the substrate failure is less
than 50 percent relative of the dolly surface area and the applied tension was less
than the specified adhesion. Pipes that have partial substrate failures greater than
50 percent and less than the specified adhesion will be rejected as a substrate
adhesion failure.
4. Glue failures in excess of the minimum required tensile adhesion would be
accepted as meeting the specified adhesion requirements.
5. Adhesion tests will be conducted on polyurethane pipe coating and lining
independently and will be accepted or rejected independently of the other.
6. Repair patches on the polyurethane coating shall be randomly selected for
adhesion testing in a manner as described herein and at the discretion of the
coating inspector conducting the adhesion tests. Adhesion of repairs shall be as
specified for the type of repair. A minimum of two adhesion tests per week shall be
provided for repair patches.
F. Holiday Testing:
1. Holiday test the inner layer of tape wrap coatings after application and prior to the
subsequent tape layer in accordance with AWWA C214 and NACE Standard
RP-0274
2. Holiday tests on polyurethane coatings or linings will be conducted on the
completed coating or lining after cure or 24-hours, whichever is less, using a high
voltage spark test in accordance with NACE Standard RP 0274 and the
Specifications. In addition, the pipe shall be holiday tested after storage and
delivery to the jobsite, approximately one day prior to installation in the trench.
3. Coating thickness used for holiday testing shall be the minimum specified coating
thickness.
G. Dry Film Thickness Testing:
1. Coatings shall be tested for dry film thickness using a properly calibrated magnetic
pull off or eddy current equipment.
2. Coating thickness measurements shall be conducted as necessary and without
limitation. Testing conformance to the requirements of SSPC PA -2 is specifically
excluded from this Section.
